I ultimately did call Amazon and after a long run around finally spoke to their security people. I had recorded the latter half of the conversion, so I sent them that too just so they were aware of it.

He re-iterated to me that Amazon does not call people. All interaction with the public starts on the website. They do not reach out to people. A confirmation on a charge, if they did such a thing, would come through email.
