asking to verify employment of someone without giving the person they wanted to verify and instantly just asked for an email. Phishing.
Caller said he was Dave Williams (heavy Middle Eastern accent) and that I'd won the Reader's Digest Megamillions sweepstakes. This included: $3.5 Million USD, a 2022 E Class Mercedes, $5,000 a week for life, and all taxes except 1% paid by the company. All I needed to provide was $25,000. When I said I didn't have that, he asked if I would buy a $500 gift card and call them back. He said that would be refunded when they delivered my prizes. As if I would care about $500 if I won all that!! The big problem is, I never entered any sweepstakes so I just led him on for a while. What a moron!!
This number is given as a call back number in a message pretending to be from Amazon wanting the recipient to call and authorize a charge for $599 for a certain cellphone. The order number they reference is a 5 digit number which I know from previous Amazon orders is in no way even close to a valid Amazon order number. BEWARE!

Did a "voicemail" lookup and it would not answer, only gave a message to call back from the phone# they called. Very strange.
