Let's find out:
One: did the person or company cold-call you?
Two: have you ever dealt with the person or company?
Three: were they pushy or tried to have you make a decision right away?
Four: did they ask for any money?
Five: did they claim to be from any law enforcement or government agency?
Six: did they ask for any personal information
If the answer is yes to any of these questions (except two, which should be no in this case) then yes, it was a scam
