So many things are wrong with this voicemail. First off, I only use that line as a backup for outbound calls, so no one should know the number. The calling number is not even a valid number, as 618 is not a valid country code. Next, it implies an Amazon.com purchase was made, but without any details. I can see how someone receiving this call on their main line might press 1 to find out what is going on. But this is a scam.

“If you have not made any such transaction then please press 1 to cancel your order. Else if you have made this purchase on Amazon and recognize it then please press 2 to confirm your order or to talk to our customer care. Please press 3 to repeat this goodbye.” - Spectrum

The article Everything you say to your Echo will be sent to Amazon starting on March 28 is going around today. But I’m signed up for early access to Alexa+ but have not seen this. Plus the bandwidth required for all my devices to continuous stream to Amazon would be a serious hit on upload bandwidth. If fact on the privacy section of the Alex+ information page of the Amazon site it says the opposite.

If you have not heard about the FREEDOM Administration Login story you should really watch the video. I set the start to the story but you might want to go further back to hear about how getting Chinese hackers out of our phone system is about impossible as well.

Just had 4 calls back to back from caller ID “Chase Bank” with completely different numbers each time. Spoofed numbers for Chase branches in Lake Havasu City, AZ, Hoover, AL, Auburn, AL, and Chandler, AZ. Interesting choices given those are 2 states I’ve never visited. All were hangups of course but no alerts have been triggered at Chase so I think I can safely say were scam calls.
