Scam Description
I got the call and upon answering I was told “there is a pending amount of $900 on my Amazon account to purchase an iPhone 11 Pro. It prompted me to approve the amount and transaction. I called back to see if it were truly Amazon and what was the circumstances around the call. When I called back a hotel receptionist answered and stated it was choice hotel. I am very confused as to how they were even able to contact me and also how choice hotel has Amazon information. I feel they attempted to scam me. I’m not sure the connection, but this is very suspicious and not adding up. I’ve uploaded the call log, illustrating that they called me and I returned the call.
