Yes that happened to me a few years ago. I got a call to verify some gasoline purchases one after the other. Total amount stolen was $700 which I did not have to pay. Also had someone buy over the phone an expensive ladies sweater from a store in Chicago. I’d rather have fraud against my credit card than a debit card which I don’t have.
