If you answer the call, please don't give out any "sacred" numbers, like you social security # or birthday or ANYTHING. Medicare DOESN'T call us. We have to call the real Medicare!!
Here's the deal on these Medicare solicitations. From the Medicare.gov website
Medicare Marketing Rules
Insurance Agents and plans M AY N O T
“Cold” Call, use door -to-door marketing, or market plans using any other unsolicited contact
Enroll a person in a plan without his/her permission
Lie to get a beneficiary to enroll in a plan
Sign someone up for a plan over the phone unless that person called them
So at best this is an unscrupulous insurance agent, at worst an identity thief.
Yes, this same phone # called me just now @ 4:56 pm on 08/31/16. The phone identifies the "registered name of the caller" as the same MEDICARE SPEC. My phone blocker that was installed by my son blocked the call for me. Thank Goodness. Spare me all the SCAM. Watch out ALL SENIORS please.
