About 3 weeks ago I called 1 800 865 5013 from a TV AD to order FREE Covid19 tests for people like me who are on Medicare. I thought it was a real Medicare AD. I have not received the order. Of course, I gave my Medicare number. I am praying this is not a scam, but now feel it is. I don't know why I didn't order them from our local Publix Pharmacy.

I received a call today from a person stating they are from CVS pharmacy who stated that I am qualified for free massaging orthotic braces paid by Medicare. I knew this was a scam from the start because I have no need for something like this nor would I be interested.

Callers from various numbers claim to be Medicare representatives. They ask if we have the "new gold medicare card with more benefits". They really want to sell Medicare Advantage. Even if we tell them we don't qualify, we get up to 10+ calls a day.

Got a call from someone claiming to be from medicare

This "Business" has contacted me Several times over the last Year or so. They are using a VOIP (Voice Over Internet Protocol) so they disguise their phone number to look like others. The one above is registered in Del Ray, FL to Midtown Surgery. They offer to put you in touch with a Salesman offering either a Supplemental Insurance for Medicare/Medicaid Recipients or the offer to other Services connected to Medicare/Medicaid. They want your Information to use and then they send False billings to Medicaid/Medicare for "Services" rendered to You! Fortunately, They are contacting me due to my Deceased Wife having had Medicare and this is how I know it is a SCAM, cause nobody in my Household is currently on Medicare nor Medicaid!!

Someone calling from unavailable 32959 number stating they are calling from Medicare to update 2019 acct and new cards for my mother. Asked for SSN, address, medical information, prescriptions, etc. When I realized she had given some of this info I got on phone to question legitimacy and was given to a supervisor that basically reiterated it all and when I suggested we call back he hung up. The call was disconnected several times and immediate call backs. Seemed to be nervous when no longer talking to seniors. Unfortunately don’t know how much info he got from my mom who has some dementia .

Caller said to be calling from Medicare and wanting to provide a knee brace. I had just been to orthopedic dr and was fitted for a knee brace two days prior. I was caught off guard and did not realize this as a scam at first and gave them my Medicare number. As soon as they called back for more info, I told them to forget about the brace. I didn't want it. They won't leave us alone. They called over 20 times today and have tried to get information from my wife, also. The phone number on caller ID is different each time. Please be aware that they are getting your medical information somehow and then trying to take advantage of you.

I received a call from someone named *** saying they were from me Medicare company. He had my name, address, phone number, and date of birth. He wanted me to confirm my medicare number and wanted me to give him more information because he claimed he needed verification for my new card. He also told me there were 3 new benefits that he would like to offer. He sounded very legitimate. When I spoke to my actual medicare company, they told me this was a scam because they would never ask for that information over the phone.

I am at my mother's house. Her phone rang and I answered. The caller ID stated Global Voice Te. The person on the phone asked for my mother by her first name. I told them she was unavailable and I am her daughter. He asked me where she was. I told her that doesn't matter and he said you sound like your mother so ok. He said that she qualified for free back or knee braces through Medicare. I told him she does not have Medicare and has private insurance. I asked how does she qualify and he said oh. He said go *** yourself bye.

Cold call about my Medicare coverage. Offer was for free dental, vision, etc if I qualify. She asked for my county, zip, name, effective date on my “blue and red card.” Asked if I had Part D. She wanted to know how much I paid monthly. Said it was too high. When she asked for my claim number I said I needed some info 1st: her name, company. Answered Rachel, independent broker (representing every company in GA). She refused to give me name of her business. Hung up on me. I called back. “Number disconnected”

They said if you did not call them back I would face penalties.

I received a call from. 931-316-2336

It was a scammer.

He was asking information about my mother..... Medicare info.

He had a very thick accent but yet was calling from a local number.

Once I told him he had to mail the information to me and that I would not answer any personal questions over the phone, he abruptly hung up.

I tried calling the number immediately and it said it was a Verizon number, and had been changed or disconnected. In less than 30 seconds......I don't think so!

I have reported the to the police and Verizon.

Received a call from "Medicare." Fraud call, Medicare doesn't call anybody. they wanted to make sure I got more Medicare money and service. They tried to ask me for my name, phone number, address, D.O.B., all personal information from me.

I wrote down the number they called from and blocked it from my phone and I told them I knew it was a scam and I hung the phone.

A caller from this number advised that they were from Medicare and asked us how our back and neck injury was doing. They knew our last names. My wife replied that she doesn't have any back or neck injury. They then asked to speak to the husband. My wife told them to give her a phone number so he can call them back. The caller acted angry and hung up.

They just said "Beware of Medicare" and hung up
