Personal info is exchanged everyday of our lives in some way. Have you ever received a phone call that asked you to give personal info over the phone? How did you respond? Do you feel this is safe?

I have indeed received these kinds of calls. I surely will not give them answers to personal questions on the phone. It is on a need to know basis and they don't need to know.

No personal info online or on the phone. Send me your request in writing through the USPS mail and then I still will contact the company first to verify everything. Too many scams and crooks out there.

I will not give my info over the phone. I tell them to send me something in the mail, if they can't do that, then they get nothing from me.

I dont feel it safe sharing personal information over phone espcially if the call is from some tele marketing company.
