Scam Description
Company called an 80 year old female, pressuring her into giving information so they could request an order for a brace from her doctor. They faxed the order to her doctor, saying the patient had contacted them requesting it, then followed up with a phone call to the doctor’s office asking the order be signed and faxed back within 24 hours. Female did not want a brace of any kind and had told them so. When I tried to call the company to discuss this with them, the call would not go through, even after several attempts.
