Ok, apparently this is an older scam (article is from 2023), but I've been getting these calls non-stop for the last few weeks.

Funny enough, I'm in Canada, so Medicare makes no sense... dumbass scammers don't even know what the hell they're doing.

Anyway, when you pick up, it sounds like a person on the other end. When I asked to speak to a human being, it said "oh, I'm sorry, my mic must be acting up"... pretending to act like a person.

As I pressed on, it basically answered in a way that would mimic a human being, and I'm sure some people might fall for it long enough to give up important information.

As AI is used more and more with scams, it's going to get really difficult to do business with actual companies.
