Description
Received a VERY detailed call from a lady saying she was with Simple Medical Supplies and that I qualified for a back brace completely paid for by Medicare. My back is bothering me and she had such a detailed delivery (what part hurts, what size T-shirt do you wear etc) that I wasn't sure whether she was legit or not. She said the company is the supplier for back braces etc. Given the company name, I looked it up, which immediately brought up a scam for that exact product. I immediately cut the conversation short and politely hung up. She knew at least my first name and zipcode. I did not give her any information including confirming my address, which she didn't ask for. I am sorry to say that the call got past the mid-level call screening on my phone. :-(
