We need to fight back. I get at least one or two calls from medical scammers every single day. I just got my AM back brace scam call on my cell phone that is listed on the useless "Do Not Call" registry. Usually, they spoof the caller ID which the FCC does not seem to be able to curb in spite of the fact the spoofing a caller ID with intent to defraud is a federal felony.

The medical scam calls I get every day fall into three major categories: 1. Robo calls that start with "This is not a sales call, but information you requested about a back brace. Calls from a live agent claiming to be from some official sounding company like the "Medicare Help Center.

I am so sick of wasting my time worrying about my private information being violated by some piece of trash that is too lazy to get out and earn a living for themselves. And then the people that will work for these thieves are just as bad.

Our government needs to get busy and put a stop to all of it. Computers and Internet freedom will put an end to our civilization. It all started with social media. Received a voice message on phone because was not home at the time saying that my computer was sending out illegal messages and that it was a federal offense and if I did not call them to correct this that a federal warrant would be issued and that I would be arrested within two days.

I get calls from unknown numbers or areas I check the call and dont pick up.

It rings 3 times then my ans. Later I check ans mach for any calls and find no calls. Sometimes I just get a phone number I dont call it but try to trace a who is.

Most of the time its a false number or dead end,. I'm getting several calls a day regarding upcoming medicare enrollment and options. Some originate overseas I assume from the accents and then connect me to an agent in this country.

Some originate here. Always spoof numbers. They try to coax me into a private payer medicare plan. I am on the do not call registry. They argue they are breaking no laws when I point this out.
