I haven't had one from Amazon Prime but have had them from the NBN. The calls are recordings but if you press "1" you are put through to a person with a script to try and get account details out of you.
If you want a bit of fun in these pandemic times it is OK to press "1" to keep them busy just don't give any personal details out. Just ask lots of silly questions, it provides amusement for 10 minutes or so.
