Phising occurred

Ii was trying to get an eta on an outage, so I called a customer service number from the top web result.  It game me the phone number [Edited: "Personal Information"].

They asked for the phone number associated with the account.  Which I gave them and then they asked me to give them the 6 digit password they sent, which I gave them only to then read the full result that this shouldn't be provided.  They hung up, I called back and it was clearly a phising group.

I immediately changed my password.  Checked who logged in the ip address were just my family is there any way to check if something was modified?

Concern moved here to the Customer Service help section for greater exposure to Comcast corporate employees (The Digital Care Team) for assistance.
