They wanted to know if I had received the new Medicare Card that was to replacethe red white and blue card. They had my address but when they asked for the medicare number I told them this is a scam and hung up.

I first responded to an advertisement with information concerning Medicare money back. I proceeded through the information section which required name, email, birthdate, phone number. When it got more demanding I stopped and should have "erased" the info I had put in, but did not. Therefore, when the phone call came in the morning, I wasn't surprised. She ( with a foreign accent) started asking questions, I said I wasn't interested, and ended the call. Then, my cell phone rang showing an unknown caller. It was an automated message that threatened legal consequences if I didn't follow procedures. I hung up, with some choice words. So, being proactive and feeling less like a victim, I am reporting this experience. Hope it helps others.

I was sent an advertisement for Medicare but there was no name attached to the flyer. I didn't know who was sending it so I called the number. The phone number was not in service. Thought it might be a scam so I reported it.

Received 2 calls...different numbers and persons...asking if I received the new "black & white" Medicare Card. Said the old red, white, & blue card will be ineffective shortly. Asked me to get the old card to provide information thereon. Of course, I did not do so, as I know exactly what they were after. But, I am concerned that other seniors my not realize that this is a scam to obtain personal information.

Sir on phone stated Medicare had genetic testing to look for any cancer that would run in her genetics. Wanted her to give them her Medicare number to them, which is her social security number.

Using a 419 area code, a Medicare “advocate” has been calling to get us to get heart tests or genetic testing for cancer. We are told Medicare will pay for it. We are told to press a number if interested or 9 to be taken off the caller list. I only answer because it is a 419 number and many doctor’s offices call with employees using their cell phone numbers. I am not about to press any number. We just hang up. We can’t block it because the number changes.

I received 2 calls asking to provide my Medicare number and name to replace my "old" paper card for a new plastic "chip" card. I refused to do so. The call came from 419-231-0764. The man calling had an accent similar to India friends of mine.

I received a call from a man that said he was with Medicare. I could barely understand him. I do not have the number that called. I do not have caller ID.He gave my name and address. He said that I am eligible for extra money in my Social Security check. He asked for my birthday. I did not give it out. When I questioned him he hung up. I wanted to report the call.

male with heavy sub-continent accent (Indian or Pakistani?) who knew my name asked whether I had received a new Medicare card in the past few days. I said no. He then said that my card had expired. I feigned incredulity, and he asked me to get my card and recite my number. At that point I told him to [censored]-off, hung up, and wrote this report.

On 2.2.21 I got a call from someone I thougth was Medicare. He said his name was David but he was a foreigner. His phone number is 855-356-4019. He said he was working with Medicare to reduce prescription drug costs. I gave him my Medicare number and my Social Security number. He said he would mail an application and I would get it in 3 weeks. David gave me a number to call back and when I did, I talked to a woman who said she hd gotten so many calls. I told her she was a scammer. She told me not to call back or she would report me to the police. I told her you go right ahead and do that. I have reported the caller to the bank and the police.

Caller said I qualified for a brace at no cost to me, but wanted my personal info. If calling from Medicare, they should have it. My doctor didn't know anything about it.

Just got off the phone with two scammers. The second guy was a supervisor who came on the phone when the first guy couldn't seem to close the deal. Details:

Caller ID said Telemarketer.

Both foreign accents. I couldn't catch the names and could barely understand the first guy.

They said they were from the Cardiac Test Center or something like that. Wanted to send me a cardiac test kit covered by Medicare (no cost to me), but needed to verify that at least two people in my family (me, two other blood relatives) have a history of high blood pressure, high cholesterol, or some other heart problem.

They kept asking me about my own history and family members going back to grandparents.

I told them I've been diagnosed with slightly high blood pressure and cholesterol, neither serious enough for me to be prescribed medication.

I told them my brother had some kind of heart problem, but I'm not sure what. They did their best to get me to say one of the aforementioned conditions.

They asked about uncles and other family members.

Somewhere along the way, they asked about personal or family history of cancer. I told them my mother died of it, but that didn't seem to qualify me. The language barrier was a problem at that point.

I finally said my father died from a stroke and that seemed to qualify me.

At that point, they verified my address - they already had it.

Then they asked for info off my Medicare card and I hung up.

They were so insistent on getting me to say that two family members had heart problems that my guess is they would actually submit a claim for the test kit. If it was simply a ruse to convince me they were legit, they wouldn't have been so persistent.

I asked what I would do with the kit and the guy explained I would take a swab from my cheek and (I think he said) send it to them and they would produce a report for my doctor describing my propensity for heart problems.
