This may be a legit call from Scripps HealthCare. They'll call to schedule appointments, procedures, etc. If they ask for the patient's name, it's to protect their privacy. Of course, any number can be spoofed, so your results may vary. But at least when they called our number today they left a message, which is not something most criminals do.
Hi,Tracy I just got a call from these guys today and I just would like to know did they say who they were ??? Why were they looking for owner info,was it a scam??? Please help me with this information,thank you
I received two calls from them. I answered one of them. They said they are Scripps. The phone number is San Diego. They said they were looking for a patient. They did not ask or tell me anything other than ask for the patient, so I think this actually is Scripps. Hardly a scam if they only ask to speak to someone. For me, I just think this was a wrong number, but they called back again so perhaps hospital and medical center might both have the wrong number. They should not be telling you or asking you anything unless you are the patient. If it is Scripps, they know this and they would only ask for the name of the person they were looking for (the patient).
