800-525-0127

Received a call from someone with a heavy accent saying he was from the State Department of Health and Human Services. Claimed he was trying to verify my information to make sure it was correct with doctors' offices, etc. He had my correct address, but did not have the correct date of birth. He wanted me to give him my correct date of birth. I was not comfortable with that and hung up. When I reverse-searched the number on Google it came up as Washington State Department of Health. I do not live in Washington. Whole thing just seemed very suspicious.

I recieved the same call. He asked who i was and why i was using someone elses number. When i asked him if he was the police he said i could say that inferring that he was indeed the police. I too do not live in Washington state and when i asked for a supervisor he hung up. Tried calling the number with no success. Who is this moron.

It's a phishing attempt, hang up.  WA DOH doesn't call asking for that type of information...they license health professionals.

caller said he was from state department of health,he asked to talk to my wife by name,i told him she was unable to come to the phone,he asked me to verify our address and her birthday. they had a wrong date but i didnt correct them,he wanted  to know her doctors name.i told she has no doctor and then he asked for my doctors name and that he could verify the name and give me the doctors phone number and office. i asked why he needed my doctors name and he changed his attitude and got rude . i   asked him to email me the information he needed and he hung up.

I received an email of this number owner. They asked me to click the link for online nursing course. I don’t know what to do. They wrote Washington Department of Health

NEVER, ever, ever, click a link in an email or text from someone you don't know, no matter how legitimate or pertinent it appears.  Are you looking for an online nursing course?  If so do your research and check out the available programs from reputable colleges online.  Here's information on phishing and smishing attempts:

Make it your policy to never open emails from persons or companies you don't recognize or have business with.  Never answer calls or call back unknown numbers.  Never respond to texts from persons you don't know.  There's a lot of nasty people out there who want to steal your money and identity.  Don't make it easy for them.  Stay safe.

23 Nov 2021: Had another call from this 0127 number. I didn't answer it - just blocked it.

Kept getting repeat calls from 800-525-0127. Shows as 'not provided'. Just blocked it.
