Beware of calls from 01209 707957, it’s a scam pretending to be from medical alerts.

My husband picked up the call and was informed that he was eligible for something called 'Medical Assistance'. He was quite baffled and replied that he didn't have a clue what the gentleman was on about, questioning how he even knew his identity before promptly ending the conversation. Curious, I also dialed 0471 to trace the number. I've always had a penchant for uncovering who’s trying to reach us and their reasons for doing so!

About a week after I reached out to a medical emergency hotline in Cornwall for a colleague, I received a peculiar phone call. The caller informed me that my number had been randomly chosen by a research firm that had forwarded it to his workplace. The call came from Redruth, and he mentioned he was currently situated in Asia. He was promoting a medical alert pendant and assured me that he would erase my number from their list, promising no further calls would come my way.

This afternoon I got a call from a bloke telling me I was eligible for some kind of medical alert bracelet. When I asked him what health issue I supposedly had to qualify for it, he quickly said sorry and ended the call. Right away, I thought this had scam written all over it. - John

Got a call from some medical alert scam, they said I was eligible but first asked if I was over 50. Pretty clear they’re targeting older folks who might be easier to trick.

There’s another number they use, 01208 227130, which sounds just as official and convincing as the first one. The moment they mentioned I qualified for a medical alert device, I ended the call right away. I’m not sure how they managed to get hold of my number since I’m ex-directory. Whatever you do, don’t share your bank or card info with them - they’re out to scam you.

I got a call from a number that sounded like some kind of medical alert with a recorded voice asking me to verify my info. Didn’t trust it one bit, so I just ended the call and put the number straight on block.

Got a call from someone claiming to be with Medical Alert, saying I qualified for a free alert through their system. Thing is, they didn’t even know who they were speaking to, so clearly no proper records. When I started asking stuff, they just went quiet. Smelled like a typical scam targeting people who might not be too careful. I think medical alert devices are great - several older family members have them - but you should definitely go through trusted places like Age Concern or your local council’s social services, not random callers.

I got call from someone about a medical alarm. They told me I could get the device free if I joined their system. Bit weird though, coz he had to check whether I was over 50 - like he wasn’t sure if I fit the age criteria or something.

The guy called himself Saun and told me I qualified for a free medical alert pendant. When I asked how he got my phone number, he just ignored the question. Then he asked if I wanted the pendant. I asked what I needed to do to get it and he said I had to pay postage and give my bank details. The minute I said I didn’t have a bank account, he hung up on me.

I received a phone call from a gentleman who claimed I qualified for some sort of medical tag. He then proceeded to inquire whether I was over 50. Instantly, I felt a twinge of doubt and let him know I wasn't interested, promptly ending the call. Given the circumstances, I must assume he was likely trying to pull a fast one on me!

A guy named John, supposedly from health services, rang me twice, once about my driveway. It’s actually those recorded calls, no real person behind it. When you respond with something odd, the automated voice comes back with a weird reply. I asked “What’s the time?” and the answer was quite odd. It almost seems like a real person until you throw some questions their way.

I got a call from someone asking if I was above 50 years old. When I said yes, they told me I could get a free medical alert device. I asked where they got my phone number and to name someone in my home who qualifies, but then they just ended the call!

The caller never mentioned his name and sounded like he was following a script, pausing here and there as if expecting me to say more. He wanted me to recommend the pendant, but I said no a couple of times. Oddly, later he claimed that based on my own recommendation, it’d be good for me! When I said I wasn’t up for a short free trial, he just wished me a nice evening and ended it. This was probably one of his lengthier calls. Received the call at 17:42 on 6th April 2022.

I got a call from someone calling himself "John," claiming I could qualify for a medical alert device. He asked how old I was, but since I wasn’t sure who he was, I told him to send me the details by email. He just said okay and ended the call without even asking for my email address. I gave the call an "unknown" rating because I didn’t poke around enough to figure out what was really going on, but I’ve got a hunch it might've been a scam. I’m on the TPS register, so I’m always wary of cold calls anyway since genuine companies check that list before contacting anyone.

I just got a call out the blue, and they were pushing some kind of medical bracelet. First thing they asked was if I’m over 50, like they think older folks are easier to trick. I’ve never had any dealings with them or any medical product firms, aside from the NHS, so it was totally random. Seemed like they were fishing for my bank info right off the bat. Proper sketchy.
