- mwerner| 1 replyAfter dead air, a voice came on and explained they had information to indicate someone in our home was in pain, and asked if that was correct. When I asked who they were and who told them that information, the girl I was speaking with could not answer. I then asked for a supervisor. When he eventually came on, he said they get info from 20 different companies and had info that someone was in pain at our household. When I pressed him to tell me who and how they could get medical info on us in light of HIPPA laws, he claimed I was not letting him answer my questions and therefore was going to hang up on me. When I asked him to please answer the question and that I would follow up with BBB if I did not have my question answered, he said he would no hand up on me and to go ahead and call the BBB. VERY RUDE! Block this number and do not take calls from them.

- Carolyn replies to mwernerIt is called the "HIPAA Act". It is ridiculous that corrupt and controlling doctors, etc. feel they can violate the"HIPAA Act" . Then defraud reports or concoct bald-faced lies in order to commit mega insurance fraud. I refuse to pay for "High Extortion" and collection agencies usually do not enforce their shaking down.
I received the same call but did not answer the telephone. There was one company where I was having a problem and I came upon a company on the internet. They ended up calling my doctor and tried to tell them that I needed about three different things. The doctors office called me and asked if they called me. I told her that either something was not necessary or that I already had what they told the doctor's office I needed. - Buddy| 1 replyWARNING: If you are going to associate with a company or person, look it up here. If you find it here, run the other way. These people have only been calling since October, 2014. I wonder if the other people reporting are to be believed. I was busy on facebook when they called. Yelled to my husband, do not answer the phone. We are too busy on facebook and babysitting dogs to care. I intend to go back to facebook when I am done. If you are being bothered, get a phone that tells you the number so you do not have to walk very far. My trip was 2 feet. A long way to go I am sure. And to the people who are calling, did you like listening to the phone ringing? Get used to it.
- Caller: Don't know, don't cre
- Call type: Prank
- BigA replies to BuddyI hope you realize that every scintilla of personal information you post on Facebook is being sold to anyone and everyone so that the owner Mark Zuckerberg gets closer and closer to having the same amount of money Bill Gates has. So post away.
- Tamianth replies to sickofit| 3 repliesIts self defense these day's and buying your own Call blocking device pays for itself since they will block way more numbers then the phone company's want to provide and paying the phone company a monthly fee for next to nothing. They are relatively cheap now day's around 40.00. The only other solutions are things like phone tray free or possibly (free) No More Robot calls, but its not available through all phone company's at this point sadly. You can still check and see though if its available to you.
- DebThis is a scam. The caller asked if I needed a refill on my pain medication. (They did not use my name, just asked if I needed refills) Caller said they could provide pain medication at a lower cost (lower than what, I don't know).
I do not take pain medication. Even if I did I would not purchase medicine from someone calling me on the telephone!
It seems like a scam to steal credit card information.- Caller: Service Center

- Long John Sliver replies to Tamianth| 2 replies847-592-8787 17Jan 2015 11:30 Service Care Medical Scammer Area Code is N. Chicago. Chicago is a hot bed of robo scammers/drug adicts/Convicts/Criminals/etc.
They appear to have gotten partial medical records (from an insurance company?) on a number of people and are using that info to generate scams.
Let's sink this despicable scum with a call blocker!!!!!
* HOW TO DEFEAT HARASSMENT/ROBO CALLS!! CALL BLOCKERS WORK!!
**
I research a harassment/scam caller then post this msg every time a robo number calls. NEVER press X to opt out, and NEVER respond in any way because it just adds your name to multiple robo calling lists.
* *
The federal no-call list is a joke - the government does nothing. The phone company wants the money from robo companies and will do nothing to stop the harassment/robo calls. Local police do not have the manpower or technology to track/block these calls. Most robo callers are criminals/drug addicts/scammers. Here is a one-time relatively low cost way to beat those harassment/robo calls.
* *
I have now defeated >90% of harassment and robo calls. I went on-line to Amazon and purchased an in-line "CPR CALLBLOCKER"! It has an inventory of up to 1200 numbers in your call blocker list. Be careful in setting up the list or you get unexpected blockages of valid incoming calls. Start by blocking all calls using caller ID’s of UNAVAILABLE, PRIVATE, or WITHHELD. I have also blocked many robo area codes which have no friends or family – 201, 212, 231, 239, 303, 304, 305, 307, 312, 321, 323, 331, 347, 360, 401, 478, 502, 505 ,513, 516, 518, 605, 608, 620, 630, 646, 650, 701, 708, 734, 740, 757, 773, 810, 815, 847, 918, 952, and 970. ONLY use 3 digit area codes, OR full 10 digit phone numbers (area code with phone number). Never use 7 digit inputs to the blocking list or you WILL have problems! Keep a complete written list of area codes and individual blocking numbers. A small glitch when entering a number into the list can mess up your entire blocking list requiring a hardware reset and complete reprogramming of the list.

Harassment/robo callers frequently use a spoofing APP to create phony incoming caller ID’s on your phone. Hidden characters in a spoofer Caller ID’s number can sneak the robo call past some blockers. I use a separate secondary SENTRY BLOCKER that ignores hidden characters and blocks/kills the call when it’s turned ON.
* *
There are many brands of call blockers other than the ones I have described. Choose yours and BLOCK THOSE HARASSMENT CALLS!!!!!
* *
It is really great fun watching my call blocker/Caller ID recorder light-up and then dump the call when the harassment/robo Caller ID matches the blocking list!!! I especially enjoy it when the call blocker hangs up on a persistent harassment caller!!! Take back your telephone from harassment/robo callers!!!!

BLOCKER CONFIGURATION
|------------CALL-ZAPPER
|
|-------------CPR BLOCKER------------PHONE
|
============|-------------SENTRY BLOCKER-----ANSWERING MACHINE
|
|-------------CID RECORDER------HOME PHONE
CPR BLOCKER has blocker list of 1200 entries for area codes and/or phone numbers. On
detection of block listed numbers the blocker hangs up all lines. All other
callers are passed thru unless Sentry Blocker rejects/hangs up line.
SENTRY BLOCKER hangs up on all black listed phone numbers. White list numbers are ignored
or passed thru for phone/answering machine. Non-listed numbers have
British/Spanish/German msg for solicitors to hang up, and all other valid
unlisted callers to dial zero to leave msg on answering machine.
When Sentry Blocker is OFF, all calls pass thru to phone/answering machine
unless blocked by CPR BLOCKER.
CALL ZAPPER sends out a telephone office signal that the phone line is disconnected. Many
auto scanning robo systems will then automatically remove the number from
their calling list
HOME PHONE rings ONCE if CPR BLOCKER or SENTRY BLOCKER blocks call. Call rings
thru if blockers are OFF or call is passed by blockers. - LosersI do not answer numbers like this!!!!!!!!
- Caller: health care
- Call type: Telemarketer
