[US] Almost scammed today and I can’t believe and my gene Z brain almost fell for it.

So the craziest thing happened today, I almost got scammed. It was a pretty good one too. So basically I got like 8 missed calls from Verizon saying someone was trying to order stuff off of my account. They didn’t ask for my social or anything but they had me confirm my email and phone number. Then they sent me a confirmation text saying that I “deny” the charge. I thought it was weird and ended up hanging up and calling Verizons fraud department myself. Turns out that this was just a scam. It’s crazy because these scammers are getting creative. Luckily I called and got my pin changed and the 2 step verification. Like I said I’m gen z so I don’t fall for scams easily but this one sounded so convincing.
