The man on the line told me that he was part of a company that distributes all the magazines in my area. I live in Ohio, so it seemed sketchy. He proceeded to tell me that other companies were calling and pretending to be them, and gave me a 'security code'. He then started to query me on personal information. I gave him my date of birth, then he asked for my occupation. I said I don't really know why a magazine distribution company needs to know what I do for a living, and that he should just put down 'N/A'.
He immediately hung up on me. I'm thinking it was a scam.
