Another Phishing Scam

I received a phone call that someone had placed an order for a Laptop computer through my Amazon account and was being ordered from an old rental property address I used to own and being delivered to an address in New Mexico (I did not recognize).

My ears were up for a potential scam but they did not ask for any account numbers He asked if any back accounts were linked to the account and listed several different banks (which I confirmed the name of one of them). Because up to that point it didn’t seem like a scam I also mentioned that one of the addresses mentioned was a rental property I used to own.

I called my credit card linked to Amazon and they verified that no recent charges have been made on Amazon after all.

I realize it was a phishing attempt but did I give away any harmful info?
