You’re not paranoid if…

I got a phone call. The person asked for me by my first name. Then he said he was calling from [$MY HEALTH INSURANCE CO] and they wanted to review my medications.

I said “Why?”

He said because their records suggested [$VITAL SIGN] was [$INAPPROPRIATE RANGE] and my treatment was inadequate. He used that tone of voice that suggests I am expected to comply, if you know what I mean.

I said “I don’t want to” and there was a several second pause and I hung up.

I don’t really think it was a scam, but whatever it was, they went about it all wrong.

Opinions welcome. No advice, please.

I don't know how it would continue on to become more scammy, but it definitely feels as if it *would*, somehow.

Yeah. I was worried they’d ask for more identifying information and try to steal my identity.
