Thanks for the info guys. I normally do NOT answer calls like this. Put them in my address book as SC (DATE) so I know I have had that call before. But recently I had investigated information about a drug that I take that is expensive and I was checking to see if there was a program to get a better discount on it. I know that some drugs do have such programs. This may have been generated from my questions. So I will answer the next time they call.
Have had several calls from this 305-779-6070 Social Services before. They had never left a message but today mother-in-law answered at 12:11 EDT. They asked age and S.S.# but fortunately she didn't know it. They talked something about Medicare D but at m-i-l's age she can't remember to much. Sounds like a SCAM to steal identity. If it was a Government agency they would know all the info and would mail a questionaire with official documents. If it is an official Government facility, they have a very poor way of conducting business!
I have received three calls from this number twice no message the last time Rubin left a message stating it concerns aarp and to call back right away. I called back just to find out what it was all about. Rubin stated that I was eligible to receive $96.00 back into my s.s. check that is the amount I pay for my medical so I said to him what info do you need he said I need for verification purposes the last 4 digits of your ss# I replied to him that I will be calling aarp because I think you are a scam. Beware do not give any info out...........
Caller called my 70-year old mother with the same spiel. Fortunately, she called to ask me to check into it. I contacted the Social Security Adminstration who denies any knowledge of such rebates.
I just received a call from that number with caller id saying "Social Service". Since I didn't recognize the number and it's out of my area, I didn't answer. No message left. This is the first time I've received such a call. I am on SS and Medicare. Definitely sounds like a scam to me and should be reported to someone to investigate.
Caller claimed they working for our insurance company (Medicare advantage) and they could eliminate the medicare premium deduction from the social security payment each month if we qualified. They had the name of the insurance company and my and my wife's first and last name.
They said if our monthly income was less than "X" we would qualify, I told them it wasn't less than "X" and they said thank you and hung up.
