Telemarketers are out of control

[selfgen]

The latest trick ( I even got a call ) is they claim to be Medicare and they are calling to replace your tattered Medicare card. They say they are going to send you a shiny new plastic card, Of course, what they actually do is enroll you in a Medicare Advantage plan , hence the new plastic card. This is so evil and disingenuous. How are they being allowed to do this? This has to stop!
Of course, most of my clients won’t fall for this gimmick, but they prey upon the weaker, vulnerable people.

No way is that possible. If this is the case I would record the conversation then see which agency I get routed to and then sue the living crap out of them. I don’t believe this though.
