"Congratulations! You have won a free trip for 2 to the Bahamas! Just answer this short survey from the Scientific Research Company..." Asked questions about whether you have joint or muscle pain; are likely to buy new topical analgesic creams; have private health insurance, medicare/medicaid, or are uninsured; and if you're under 65. Wants you to then press 1 for a travel specialist to contact you within the next 24 hours to give you your reservation number.
Thank you very much for providing this information. I never answer these sorts of calls, from unknown numbers, but I appreciate knowing what they are about -- what they are trying to peddle, what kind of information they are trying to collect.
I hung up after they said answer these questions. But I find it odd that they're asking about health insurance, if you have it or not and or if you're on medicare/Medicaid...all of that and the call comes from Washington D.C.?! VERY ODD.
