Like a persistent shadow that won't fade even after you slam the door, these relentless calls keep creeping back under new guises. The same grating voice popping up from different numbers points to aggressive telemarketing tactics targeting seniors on Medicare, pushing plan switches or add-on benefits right after your 65th birthday. It's a classic ploy in the insurance scam arena, where they ignore blocks and do-not-call lists to wear you down. Hang up immediately on unsolicited pitches—don't engage. Report to the FTC at ftc.gov/complaint, and consider a call-blocking app that flags Medicare-related spam. If it escalates, your state's attorney general can step in for nuisance harassment protection.
After requesting a block, this number continues to call me a few times each week from different lines, using the same irritating voice. I turned 65 in April, am now on Medicare, and get daily calls from various agencies pushing extra benefits or plan switches.
