Amex asked me, via text, to call a number they provided to verify a potentially fraudulent charge and the first thing the number you call asks for is your full credit card number, all digits, not last four, all of them. The line doesn't even identify them as being from amex (not that you should trust it).
I called the fraud line on the back of the card (which was different than the number in the text) and they confirmed it was authentic but man, everything about that is straight up phishing.
TD Bank is also one that's horrible. Their online banking portal is myonlineaccount.net which is straight up a domain you'd use for phishing.
