Yeah. Recently I was expecting a message from a bank, finally I got a call... from a chatbot claiming it has an important message for me, but first I have to give it my private info to verify myself and there's no way to validate the call is legit first.
When I complained to the bank they just told me I shouldn't worry, they made the call so it's perfectly safe and there's nothing to worry about...
I would change banks over that and list that as the reason why.
