Description

Received telephone message on my answering machine on 6/6/2023. The voice msg asked me to call AETNA at 844-206-9178 regarding my prescription coverage. Msg said to use my 10 digit telephone number as my verification code when prompted. I have AETNA medical insurance, but I do not have prescription coverage with AETNA so I was alerted. When I contacted AETNA using the telephone number on the back of my insurance card. The representative (Ariel) confirmed AETNA did not call and I do not have prescription coverage with them. It is common knowledge that state of Illinois retirees have AETNA insurance so I hope others that may be targeted realize AETNA is for medical only and do not call the scammer back.
