Sounds like a variation of this is a spam/phishing attempt:

Wise decision not to answer these calls. As a further precaution, change your account password.

I blocked the call but not before I tryed to go to sight, Lucky for me Safari could not access the sight. Then I realized must be a scam.

The proliferation of these types of incidents is well documented in the tech world blogs. As a further suggestion, update the virus signatures on your preferred anti-virus/malware/spyware software, and run it regularly. Always ensure you keep up with downloading and installing system maintenance updates, and patches.
