I get these calls almost daily and I never answer. We DO use Medco so I am not sure of the validity of the calls, but today I pressed 'talk' to see if I could actually talk to a real person. After about 20 seconds of the robo trying to connect me, it hung up. So since the federal DoNotCall does not seem to work, I am using all of the technology available to combat this caller (and others). My Panasonic phone system has a built-in caller block that you can block the number with only a few keystrokes. That is the best that any of us can do since the government and phone companies are unwilling to help John and Jane Doe in this blatant form of phone and privacy abuse.
I called the number and got through to MEDCO. They confirmed that the repeated calls are "sales calls" hoping to convince us to fill more prescriptions through MEDCO! I asked to be removed from the list and do not want any further calls to my cell phone.
Medco is a joke. They screwed up 12 out of 13 prescriptions. It only makes sense that their telemarketing practices are underhanded. Ive complained to the FTC, states attorney and the State insurance dept. Next week im going to start with HR. This is rediculous.
I have gotten several calls from this number over the last couple weeks, same as the rest, no answer when called and they never leave a message. My guess is that it is some kind of identity theft scam.
