Surprisingly, a handful of spoofed IDs keep slipping past most filters, and they all masquerade as Medicare help lines. Callers flash names like ExpressBenefits while the caller ID shows nonsense such as NRFOLKZON2VA, then pressure you for personal data. The safest move is to hang up immediately, never share Social Security or bank info, and add the number to any call blocking app you use. Register the line with the Do Not Call Registry, but remember scammers often spoof new numbers, so treat every unsolicited Medicare offer with skepticism. Report persistent offenders to the FTC and your phone carrier for possible trace and block.
While I was on another call, Medicare scammers attempted to reach me, but they did not leave a voicemail.
The call came in as NRFOLKZON2 VA Medicare telemarketers, just another annoying call.
Repeated calls from this number have been made, with no messages left, suggesting scam activity
Medicare scammers, annoying
I didnt answer the call, they didnt leave a message either
My cell phone CID said Scam Likely, thats all you need to know, SCAM!
The caller ID showed Norfolk, VA, but the call was blocked after one ring.
Everyday i get more and more call from scammer like this one, cant beleive i cant stop them, only can block 250 number on my phone, landline dont have this option, really fed up with this people
After being reported to the FTC, this scammer was reportedly banned and has since ceased all activities.
For two months, numerous calls have been received with alleged 'Medical benefits' offers, all appearing to be spoofed numbers, causing frustration
The caller ID displayed the name "NRFOLKZON2VA"
This is clearly a scam, as evidenced by the 10th bogus medicare call we've received from different numbers, all with the CID indicating a Robo Caller.
Fortunately, my call blocker caught the call from ExpressBenefits, saving me from another harassing experience. These unwanted calls are relentless, despite being on state and national do-not-call lists. I've even written to my representatives, but to no avail. Perhaps we can all forward these calls to the White House, although that would be unfair to the receptionist.
The call was ignored and no message was left, with the caller ID showing NRFOLKZON2.
No voice message was left by the caller.
The caller ID showed 'ExressBenefits', claiming to be 'the Medicare Health Center', but it's clearly a call center due to the annoying sound when the call was answered.
Suspicion arose when the Caller ID displayed NRFOLKZON2,VA, and the caller claimed to be from the 'Medicare Helpline,' prompting the decision to hang up, block the number, and report it to the Do Not Call Registry.
The caller ID only showed 'Virginia' and they didnt leave any message.
