Type of a scam Advance Fee Loan

Recording indicates my application had been approved (No one in our household made an application or verbally requested information on any loan for any purpose or amount).

Option to Press 1 to get my loan or Press 9 to decline.

Unknown if scammer would have sought money up-front or how this scam would work:

a) loan in my name where I never saw the money?

b) loan in my name and money received less significant fees and handling charges?

c) something else that may not have been honest?

Type of a scam Phishing

Recording acted like a person asking , "oh, didn’t know you were there. You stayed at our resort…". At this point I hung up. I heard about a scam that when you say yes on the phone they can use it for some purpose to charge back, I believe this is one of those since the recording did not identify the company. This just happened at 6:51pm est. I will monitor my accounts to see if anything is charged back.
