The phone number belongs to whomever called you and obtained your information. I would suggest that you contact the three credit reporting agencies and get copies of your credit reports. Make sure that nothing has happened with your credit that you don't know about. You might put a block on your reports -- usually a password -- so that it would be difficult for others to open accounts with your information. If you were to plug the phone number into a search engine such as Google, you would have found that others complained about it being a scam, as well.
The rule of thumb is, if it sounds too good to be true, it probably is.
