Late last week, dozens of households reported repeated rings from +1‑978‑773‑1346. The number belongs to Exact Sciences, the company behind the Cologuard colon‑cancer screening kit that many doctors order for their patients. While a single follow‑up call to confirm shipment or give instructions can be legitimate, the volume described—multiple calls per day, different caller IDs, and messages that ignore opt‑out requests—crosses into harassment. Callers should verify the purpose with their physician, ask to be placed on a do‑not‑call list, and block the number through carrier tools. If a call feels unsolicited or pushes payment, report it to the FTC and your state consumer agency.
I never ordered a Cologuard test, yet I've been recieving robocalls adresssed to me, and today a test kit arrived at my doorstep, leading me to beleive that they are purchasing lists from testing facilities and targeting individuals who have undergone colonoscopies
Despite neither my doctor nor I requesting it, they persist in calling, claiming false positives and demanding my DNA, which I refuse to provide.
Harassment calls about Medicare
The frequency of calls from this number is excessive, with the first call providing thorough directions, and it is questionable whether they actually charge $600 to insurance companies.
We've received calls from the number (847) 916-6635 on two occasions, with the caller asking for Nancy, a person we're not familiar with. Today, another robocall was made, inquiring about Nancy Stockard or Stoddard, but we still can't provide any information about her.
Further research reveals that the calls are from Exact Science or Exact Science Labs, which also uses the number 847-916-6635. The frequent calls may be due to their high charges to insurance companies and Medicare, prompting them to persist in collecting samples for testing.
It's unlikely that someone would share their colon cancer screening results online unless it's a scam or they have mental health issues.
Appreciation expressed through a simple thank you message
Despite my explicit request to cease communication, they continue to call me repeatedly, disregarding my ability to follow instructions on my own. This behavior has crossed the line from assistance to harassment.
Despite having broken ribs, I've been bombarded with calls from this company, which is unnecessary and stressful
Earlier today, I missed a call from 1-978-773-1346, sadly they didnt leave a message
Despite having a Cologuard kit to use soon, they continure to call me from diferent numbers and locations, I only anser calls that show the company name, this one only showed Andover MA, it's annoying
This number is associated with Cologuard, a legitimate service for colon cancer screening.
Contrary to initial suspicions, this call was from Exact Sciences Labs, the manufacturer of the Cologuard colon cancer screening kit, and was for verification purposes prior to shipping.
My post explains everyting, it's not a prank call
Initially, the call seemed suspicious due to the limited caller ID information, but it was later found to be from a legitimate company regarding a medical test.
This number is associated with Exact Sciences Laboratory.
Why dont they just get a real job and stop botherin people with these calls????
