Go one step further and respond with "One million dollars...mmmm" Asking someone what they made at a previous employer seems like a cheap way to try and pay someone as little as possible. A fun snarky response feels justified. Best case, they laugh and offer you a fair salary. Other best case, you move on to interview at a better company.
