No, this call is absolutely did not originate from Skype; it is a scam and pfishing attempt.
Do not answer the call; if you receive another contact request or invitation, block the contact request and check in the Report as Abuse box so Skype staff are immediately alerted. Ensure your privacy settings are set "for your contacts only," and for the sake of security, change your account password immediately.
