scam?

Today I received a phone call from number +1 647 249 7455 with a really nice upgrade for my current plan. I wasn't sure whether to proceed with this offer or not, because I suspected it was a scam call, therefore I asked if I could call back so I would have some time to think about it. The call back number I received was 403 775 9367 and the number from his manager 403 775 2131. Could somebody confirm if these are scam or not? I really hope it was actually TELUS, because I really like the deal. TIA

      No I did not, I wanted to check first if it was scam or not...

      Thanks, then I assume it was a scam call, unfortunately.

    It's odd that they'd give out their direct contact number and especially their manager's number. I've never encountered that before from an actual Telus employee.
