Somebody tried to get me to buy ticket for some non-profit event.
It appeared like a scam, because he asked me to provide mailing address(so that he can send me tickets) and credit card number. He also said that I would have to do transactions over the phone, no online transaction.
Do not give your credit card number, name OR address to any random dude who calls or emails or mails you.
when answered by answering machine, a recorded message says "I can't speak with you in person right now..." I get these calls a lot, often from different numbers.
