Asking fore personal information (Scam call) reported by Goose
The guy told that he's from Scotia Bank and they have a special offer for me. After agreeing to listen to that special offer he requested my personal information for verification.

The reason they ask those non-banking questions is to make sure its the right party.
Imagine your purse and phone got stolen, the info shared by them will be recieved by the thief, not you.
And we can always say NO.

they said they are Scotiabank, offer some credit card. asked me for my post code, then ask about the name of my employer. why the heck do they need the name of my employer?

I confirmed with Scotia. They would be asking 2-4 non banking questions like name of the employer, middle initial, postal code and month and year of birth.
But never proceed, if they ask your security number etc.

asking for personal details, SCAM! (Scam call) reported by nn
Someone calls to your personal phone number won't need to verify your personal information again. Only stupid person will share them a personal details when telemarketer asking to verify it's you. 100% SCAM. Do not give anybody your personal information in anyway.

Scotia Bank does not call requesting personnal info...blocked it! (Scam call) reported by GL
The lady could barely speak English. I just listened to her babbling and hung up. I googled the number and it turned out a negative rating. I blocked it but I know they will call again with a different number.

somebody from the "Scotia Bank" called me back in the spring and asked me about my birthday to "verify" my account and I like an *told her, but now they've started calling me again, probably want to know the city I was born in, and then they can steal my identity

Scotiabank Sales (Financial services) reported by Surething
This number has been verified on Scotiabanks' Facebook site as a legitimate number. The problem I have is that they are apparently asking people for personal details to verify accounts, etc... something which Scotiabank says it will never do. No - you should not give out personal info over the phone unless you call them. If everyone knows this - what are they hoping to gain by breaking their own rules of security? I blocked the number. If I need info or services, I know where they are.

Where in their Facebook page do they verify this number? I called Scotiabank customer service and they said that this number is not affiliated with them.
