A recorded call claiming to be a call back about an enquiry I made about a back brace commercial that I saw on TV. By claiming a call back they are probably trying to get around the no call list restrictions. But 1) I haven't had TV service for about 7 years, 2) I never even saw their commercial, 3) I have contacted no one about a back brace, and 4) I don't need a back brace so have no reason to call anyone.
... Just adding my two cents (okay... more like twenty-five cents!). I didn't answer this call, the CID looks like an obvious scam call. I could overhear their message running while my outgoing message played. We are all getting medical equipment scam calls lately. They're hoping to gaslight people. Reprehensible. I can tell you, from working for orthopaedic surgeons and neurosurgeons for about sixteen years, that this company's braces are mediocre, having seen their ads on TV. What they aren't clear about that you need to bear in mind, is that when they promise it could be for free, you will have to actually see a doctor anyway, for him to write the prescription that would allow insurance to pay for it. And he would have a more appropriate treatment plan. Therefore, if you are going to need to see a doc, he already has physical therapists and orthotists who can fit you with a good one, and get it paid for by insurance. These scammers have no medical backgrounds and no medical training, probably not much education either, and also don't care if something else is seriously wrong with you, that your pain could be symptomatic of underlying conditions. They're trying to sell you a crap, not do any differential diagnosis. Back pain, swollen knees or joints: your symptoms could be indicative of something else that needs attention, and dealing with this company would delay diagnosis and treatment. And if you wear a brace, it can weaken the area so you become dependent on it instead of using your muscles properly, leaving you more vulnerable to serious damage. I would rather you try over-the-counter pain medicines, application of ice and/ or heat, elevation if appropriate, baking soda soaks, other home remedies, and if you really want to try a brace, go to a local brick-and-mortar medical equipment source, or even Walmart or CVS, to try one. You can at least return it if you got it locally. These vultures are just preying upon your suffering.
Received a call from (928) 227-1995, caller ID of Prescott, AZ. Since I don't answer calls from cities it went to the answering machine. No message was left. Obvious SPAM in my opinion.
