Person with foreign accent said they were sending me a new Medicare Card plus free of charge knee and back braces taken care of by Part B Medicare, I refused to be sent anything that I had not ordered and said not to send anything and I hung up. This has happened numerous times. Very frustrating to keep receiving these calls.

I got a call this morning from a 612 number and the next three digits matched mine. My Google pixel normally alerts me to potential spam and this call came through.with no spam alert on it. The woman sounded credible but had a heavy accent wanting to know if I had gotten my "new Medicare" card. That's right - not Medica or BCBS etc - MEDICARE. I told the caller I was not aware that there was a need for Medicare to send out a new card. I asked her name etc and she worked hard to sound legitimate. I told her I would go on to my Medicare account and confirm I had the correct cards and I hung up.

I got a call saying I qualify for a free back massager brace that is qualified through Medicare. They knew my address and asked me to conferm everything like address zipcode and then asked me for height and weight. Then after I gave them that I almost gave my Medicare number to them but I didn't have it on me, then they asked for my Social Security Number and then I thought it was weird. So I said I wasn't going to tell them. They kept trying to get me up to get it and I kept saying no after I realized it didn't seem right. Now I'm afraid they are just going to send it out or use my address for something.

The person called & said he was from Medicaire & was taking information for new plastic Medicare cards. He said that Medicaire had sent out letters for this but most of the letters were stollen. He already had my name, birth date & an old address. I gave him my present address. He then asked for my Medicaire number. I told him that I was not comfortable giving my Medicaire number over the phone. He said it was ok to give him the number because no one but me could use the number anyway. Then I asked him why the above letters were stolen if no one could use the numbers & he said he didn’t know. He asked again for my Medicaire number & I asked him to give ME my number & I would tell him if it was right or wrong. He said that was against policy. He kept asking me for my number & started to get irritated. He asked again for my number & I asked him to repeat the number he had to me & he said if I didn’t give him the number I would no longer be able to use my Medicaire card & I would be charged $1,000. I said ok & hung up.

She had an Indian accent and said she was with Medicare. She said this was a yearly follow up from last September. Then, she said "the federal government"..., and that is when I interrupted and said, "the federal government has nothing to do with me" to which she chuckled and replied, "we are on a recorded line". That is when I hung up. I called the number back and the call immediately went to voicemail said, "the person you are trying to reach is not accepting calls at this time".

I received a call from someone who said they needed to send me a new Medicare card. She knew my name and my address and asked me to get my Medicare card so I felt it was suspicious. I called Medicare and they told me they never call.

I called back the scam number and it was a woman selling health insurance! I told her I am in the do not call registry and she scolded me saying she is not a fake person. But a medical insurance company and she has all my info! She was mean! I told her to remove my number immediately! I’m sick of these calls! All day! Every day!

A foreign sounding person claimed to be a Medicare representative. He told me I needed a new 2024 Medicare card because of changes to the program. He needed my new address, and at that point I hung up. Medicare does not call you for information. They do everything by mail. Beware!

They identified themselves as a medicare representative. Asked personal information, including insurance. Wanting to send the person a back brace.

When confronted about asking personal information, & misrepresenting themselves. They denied saying they dont call people, its an incoming line only.

The scammer called my step dad who is 69 pretending they were Medicare. They requested his Medicare number and he gave it to them before he realized it was a scam.

Called from or was using 480 872-9444 . Said he was calling from Medicare & wanted to know the last time I went to the Dr, when I asked him why he needed that information because if he WAS Medicare he would have that information. Sounded like he was from India. He started yelling at me so I hung up!

Phone # on caller ID showed as V416110242000235188 AND 641-472-6785. Call was an automated system stating "can you hear me?" "My name is Abby the updated Medicare benefits have been announced..." "We can find you the best deals from 18 companies..." I am not eligible for Medicare & indicated this when prompted every time they've called and it has been repeatedly from various numbers.

Caller asked if I had received my new Medicare card. I sensed it was a scam. Unfortunately, I answered yes & hung up. I felt it was a scam & they were calling trying to have me provide information.

I called Medicare & they said they never make phone calls. I didn't give any information but worry they might have recorded my voice. Hope this information is helpful to prevent other situations for the public.

The caller claimed to work with Medicare. They were to deliver a package with back and knee braces, covered by Medicare part B.

I asked the name of the company and researched them. Care Plus Supplies Corp, in New York - foreign owned. The number they called from was local (757)909-0931. When they asked for personal info, which I did not share, I told them I would call my Medicare rep to see who authorized this "free" shipment. They insisted it was a benefit and no one had to authorize it. Then the line went dead.
