I recently provided my information for health insurance, and then I received a call from this number. They go by the name Assured Medical. It’s not a fraudulent operation, but they certainly are relentless once you've shared your contact details. To get an online quote, you must submit your number.

I was browsing a site comparing health insurance costs and then this number started calling me. I’m not a fan of phone chats so I just ignored it, but from what others are saying, it’s probably someone trying to pitch health insurance.

I was checking out Compare.com for health cover when some guy rang me then passed me onto another bloke. Later on, he called me back in the evening but I couldn’t get through when I answered. Seemed super dodgy, felt like a big scam. After that, I started getting strange WhatsApp messages as well. Ended up blocking every number.
