what happens when I press 1 on a scam call

I got a call from "Fedex" saying to press 1 for a delivery I was waiting for. It wasn't the company making my delivery and of course it hung up as soon as I pressed 1.


what happens when you do this? Have I been hacked??


thanks!

Have I been hacked??

No, if you haven't jailbroken your iPhone, it's not possible.
