Energized Marketing Benefit Savings Recorded all my personal identity info and tried to charge my credit card Lakeland Florida

February 15 at 8:00pm. I clicked on the Contact Us phone number 800 88 55 66 77 posted on https://owners.marriottvacationclub.com/timeshare/mvco/contact-us#. The number belongs to the Cork, Ireland office of Marriott. The call instead went through to 800 885 5667, Benefit Savings aka Energized Marketing.

The person who answered the phone did not identify the company and began asking me the normal questions. Thus he got all my identity information because I thought I was speaking with a Marriott rep. When he made an offer of a $100 gift cards for US stores for a small mailing fee, I unhappily gave him my credit card information. Then he passed me to a Mark Lopez who recorded all the same info again. At this point I realized it was not Marriott but a telemarketing scam. I hung up and immediately cancelled my credit card. But now they have all my personal identity information so I am open to identity theft!
