Got unwanted call from 618-215-2177?
Some grumpy fake laffing lady tells me that I am chosen to be on the local steering committee for Eric Trump's campaign to de-throne the old Don in 2020. She wants me to arrange meetings and collect and send funds secretly so that the old Don wont find out that this is being done until it is later. Hoo is lewi Gomurd? They say Gomurd will be the next VeeePeee.
These folks may be the ones what sold me ole gran a very used walk-in-freezer from a closed restaurant demo. She believed she was getting a walk-in bath thing that she needed. Now the danged walk in freezer that they told her to go to a movie while they installed it takes up her front hall, kitchen and living room, it leaks, stinks and makes noise all day and night and the landlord wants her and it OUT. The electric bill is KRAAAZEE.
clains to be with medixare
Caller ID displayed 618-215-2177. Didn't recognize it so didn't answer. No message left. Did a search for number and directed to this site.
Wanted to discuss my current medicare coverage. When I said I was too young for medicare, the caller hung up immediately.
Claims to be my senior medicare advisor. I requested to be removed from their call list. He said, "No I will not remove you from our list." WHAT?!?!?!?!?!?
Want to sell me stuff that would be covered on Medicare. Told them to stop calling me. Take me off their list. This has happened several times this week
Part 2. I forgot to add that Lady called me at 12:35 PM on 4/30/19 It says the call came from E. St. Louis, IL
Lady wanted to talk to me about me medicare Insurance and I told her I don't know who she was and I will NOT discuss my health insurance with her then she hung up on me. They keep calling although I'm on the Do NOT Call registry. They keep harassing me.
There are many scams from DME companies like this. This scam is when the DME companies work with a medical doctor and a telehealth company. The telehealth company cold calls senior citizens to see if they have pain here or there (usually joint pain like back, knee, and wrist). Then they have a medical doctor ask you a few questions and you end up receiving a brace or two in the mail, whether you want /need them or not. Them Medicare gets billed out the kazoo. There are Medicare policy requirements for telehealth and none of what they are doing meets those requirements. The medical doctors are paid by the telehealth company for each beneficiary they sign up for the service. The DOJ/OIG just did a massive take-down of DMEs for this telehealth scheme. https://www.justice.gov/usao-mdfl/pr/federal-indictments-and-law-enforcement-actions-one-largest-health-care-fraud-schemes
