Around 6 wks ago I misspelled youtube.com. I was directed to a website that looked like a youtube web page. It stated that I was the 100,000th visitor and I have the option of completing a survey to win a prize. I completed the surgery and gave my email address, phone no and address. Since than I've been getting multiple phone calls from different companies. Most of them sound foreign with european-middle eastern-indian accents. Somehow this company has gotten a hold of your no and is now making multiple calls throughout the day.
They just called and said they were representing a "medical claims department." They asked if I every had surgery. Then asked if anyone else in my family did. The obviously middle eastern individual could answer any of my questions, like who he worked for or why he wanted to know this information. I guess he got tired of my inquiries and he hung up. Scum-bag. The caller ID displayed Hackensack, NJ. I called back and got a message saying it was a non working number.
Do you have Independence Blue Cross or another form of Blue Cross insurance? I got the same call as you described and that is the only connection I can think of.
They have called me numerous times asking if I had a bladder mesh surgery. They also call from 512-687-2047. I asked him today for the name of the place he was working for and their phone number and he hung up. I have BCBS Insurance as well but have never had any surgeries. Makes me wonder what my doctor has turned in to the insurance company
They just called me about a half hour ago. I was on a long distance call but have Caller ID. So when I got off the phone I googled them and saw all these folks are getting the same calls. I did have someone call me about a month ago asking if anyone in my family had surgery recently. Just said No and hung up. Going to block the # now.
