When I asked the man where he was working, he said he was in Guatemala City but when I switched to Spanish he said "Because of my work I can't speak in Spanish but I can transfer you to someone who does." The reason I ended the call was because he sounded exactly like the Indian scammers I see / hear on YouTube. He said "amazon" like "am-a-zun." Then when I looked up this number I saw that others believe it's a scammer's number.

Amazon Impostor Scam: Someone left 4 texts with many links. They claimed there were many sign-in attempts from Illinois. It was so obviously a Phishing scheme. Seeing so many reports, it appears they are not very successful at their job of Phishing to catch a fool. I bet they are ***gry. Someone, please, just give them a fish instead, followed by some good old-fashioned fishing lessons. Or maybe just give them a big pile of ****!

This is most definitely a scammer. What helps these scammers is the fact that some people feel obligated to a answer the phone just because they hear it ringing! Those people think a phone is made to ring and when it rings it is suppose to be answered. UNBELIEVABLE! Unless you are at work and being paid to answer a company phone, you are not obligated to answer! REMEMBER THAT!!
