"🚨 SCAM ALERT – DO NOT ACCEPT THIS CALL 🚨 ⚠️ Scam caller claiming to be from Amazon. The caller spoke with an Indian/Pakistani accent and claimed that I had purchased a new iPhone through Amazon.

Please share this warning with family and friends, especially anyone who may be vulnerable to these types of scams. Stay alert β€” Amazon will not ask you to provide sensitive information over an unexpected call."
