SCAM ALERT!!

Medicare phone scams happen when criminals call and pretend to work for Medicare. They try to steal your personal details, your bank info, or your Medicare number. A local resident reported that she had received phone calls this past week from Jim Thorpe and Verizon phone numbers acting as Medicare workers. Medicare never makes unsolicited calls to sell things, verify numbers, or threaten you with a loss of benefits.
