Supposedly from the Center for Disease Control (CDC) taking a survey on immunizations.  Seemed fishy.

Yes seemed very fishy, considering they only asked questions dealing with the members my house hold and even wanted to know if we had a land line. Wanted to send us $5 to participating in the "survey" also

Called at 6:25 pn central time no voicemail

Got the same kind of call today.  Offering $10 for the information.  Said my cellphone number came up on a list.  Tried to get information about my family, the land line, and the name and address to send the money.  Of course, got nothing but still disturbing!!

Called yesterday, and left a message asking me to call them back to participate in a 10$ survey. Today they called and asked if I had a land-line, and for the # of children between 12months-3years living in my household. Followed by a request  for my name and address of where to send the 10$--------I left a address to a vacant building whose mail is forwarded to my home. Lets see if my 10 comes in!

Just found this----real or a scam build on a believable possibility????

They've called my cell phone 3 times, never leaving a message...

Called twice so far and left a voicemail once asking for information and in return they would give me $10...

My daughter received a call from this number on her cell phone.  They said it was CDC (Center for Disease Control).  It was generated by a computer and she hung up.

Calls me every night around 7:30pm CST but dont leave any message.

Called me several times within the past week and they never left messages

Any calls you receive from (312) 759-5298 or (312) 759-2474 are about The National Immunization Survey (NIS). This survey is sponsored by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), a federal agency of the U.S. government, and is conducted by the National Opinion Research Center (NORC) at the University of Chicago.

This important national survey is intended to improve the health of Americans by collecting information about childhood, adolescent, and adult immunizations. The information collected helps identify communities or areas needing additional resources for immunization programs.  

You can access additional information about the NIS at www.cdc.gov/nis and about NORC at www.norc.org.  Your questions can be addressed to CDC by calling toll-free (800) 232-4636 or sending an email using the link http://www.cdc.gov/vaccines/about/contact/nipinfo_contact_form.htm.

The National Do Not Call List does not apply to public health research, so it does not apply to the NIS. If you have concerns about being on the NIS calling list, please call toll-free (866) 999-3340.
