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.
Person called and said they were calling from the state medical claims office. Could hardly understand the guy because he was calling from a "boiler room operation" (lots of people making calls in the same room...like telemarketers) .. I told him there was no such thing. He asked for me by my first name...(clue it was a scam) and then asked if I had just had surgery . I said no..Then he asked if I had any children... I asked if he was calling from India and said this was obviously a scam.. then finally, as he struggled to come up with a new angle, I hung up. Clearly a scammer...
This number called me and started asking questions about if I had any surgeries for bladder repair or bladder sling. I had him repeat who he was "from medical claims department" he gas a very thick Indian accent. I kept asking him where he got my phone number from and he said "from the hospital and he would let me talk to his supervisor if I answered his questions.i told him I am not giving you ANY information and do not call thus number again. Sounds like they are getting information from insurance company. .. which I am calling and giving them the information about this phone call. .. This has got to be a total scam!! Do not give them ANY information! !
