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.
BEWARE! SCAM!!!! Number has called me multiple times and I always decline the call. However I did answer this morning out of curiosity and the same thing they said to Lance, they said to me. That it was a medical claim and asked if I or anyone of my kids had surgery. I honestly couldn't understand the man and after asking him to repeat himself several times, I asked him to have someone call me that didn't have such a strong accent and hung up.
I've been called at least 15 times by this number in the past month. Same guy with the strong, hard to understand accent. I've yelled at him after being polite for a while and told him never to call again, same day, he calls again. When I say , "I TOLD YOU NOT TO CALL!" He hangs up on me. Now when I hear his voice I just hang up first. He called twice today but I didn't pick up. I get charged on my phone every time I pick up. This is a drag. He says too that he is from the "medical billing dept". They try to act like they r associated with blue cross blue shield, which nearly everyone has, but they are not!
My work cell phone number used to belong to a person named Jessie. As is customary with new cell phone numbers, former friends and associates of the previous owner will call, then they are informed that the person that they are looking for no longer is associated with the phone number. Today I received a call from the "Medical Claims Department." The caller had an Indian accent and asked for Jessie. I told him that Jessie no longer has this phone number. He then continued and asked me if I have ever had and VAGINAL SURGERY in the past. For a minute there I thought that one of my friends was playing a joke on me. I asked him to repeat himself after my response because he continued to ask questions of which I could not understand what he was saying due to his accent. He asked me again if I have ever had any VAGINAL SURGERY....... Lets just say that the colorful language that came out of my mouth (NO PROFANITY) truly enabled him to profusely apologize for calling and asking such a question. There is no doubt that this call was a scam.
