My wife got a text from this number stating they were from Amazon and disputing a $2000 camera purchase. She called and they attempted to farm personal details. They provided the generic first 4 numbers of a credit card to attempt to validate the call. Luckily no information was provided. DO NOT CALL THIS NUMBER - SCAMERS
