Scam caller ID with Xfinity

I received a called with the caller ID as Xfinity. They called me asking me I'm eligible for a deal with adding a mobile phone line for $45 off my current bill. I asked what account are they calling about, and he says it's confidential and asked me to confirm my phone number with the code that was texted to me. I told him the code and he told me what my address and plan was. In the end I declined the offer and we hung up. Is this a scam?
