Medicare scam calls – how to protect yourself
Summary — +19782729395
Expert Opinion
Yesterday afternoon, a wave of calls claiming to be from Medicare has been surfacing across the region. Callers hang up quickly, demand addresses, or promise bogus refunds, and they often ignore Do‑Not‑Call rules. The safest move is to never share personal information until you independently verify the agency through official channels or known phone numbers. Use call‑blocking apps, add the number to your carrier’s block list, and report the incident to the FTC and your state’s consumer protection office. If a legitimate agency needs to reach you, they will send a mailed notice or use a verified contact method.
