This is definitely a scam as you figured out. I got a call from this phone number today, but I've received other calls that use the same 904 area code. This is an area code for northern Florida, however, scammers can spoof any number they want. I guess they think that if someone looks up the area code, they're more likely to believe the scam, since Florida is a top destination for vacationers. I'm grateful for sites like 800Notes and the people who take the time to add their warnings here. Wish the authorities could catch these crooks, but I guess it's too overwhelming of a problem. Phone companies aren't going to lift a finger to stop these calls either, since they are making a lot of money from their frustrated customers who order and pay for additional call blocking and caller ID services. Then there are the companies that are making money off their call blocking devices.
