Description
I accidentally called a toll free number 800-229-6633 number and it should have been an 866 number. When they answered, it went directly to a recording requiring yes and no answers. I answered them with yes and no thinking it was an actual live person and instead it was a recording. They even used vocal fillers such as “um”. Shortly thereafter, we were disconnected. When I realized I had called the wrong number, I called the 800 number again just to see what would happen and the questions were different. I’m afraid they recorded my answers and they can use it to commit fraud. Is that possible?
