This number is a military healthcare survey

its not a military healtcare survey the poster that says that works for the company that is trying to rip you off.... its an atempt to gather info from you to fraud you and gain access to your credit etc. DONT TELL THEM ANYTHING!!!

A tri-care survey.

This is BS. She was stuttering when I asked them questions back.

DoD will NEVER have someone call to do a survey. They do not contract out to companies for the BS. They will mail you something, or send something to your AKO account. This is a scam company trying to get information from you to use against you; ie: steal your identity. Dont answer, or call back, and give them any information. Its sad that they have to use the military as an excuse now to con people.

I called the number back (Tricare survey) and I was able to remove my number from their listing.  All they asked for was my phone number.  Extremely simple process.  Hopefully it works.

I am military, and Tricare DOES NOT make calls like this. I even went up to the local Tricare office on base and asked them, and they said they never give out info for anyone to call you and ask questions. Give them your information at your own risk is what I was told, or better yet, ignore the call.

Just got a call from this number as well at lunchtime. 1240 CDT (thereabouts.) I was trying to take a 1/2 hour nap before I had to go back to work.

This call really got me angry....WHY CALL DURING LUNCH BREAK.

Whatever, whoever they are don't do business with them in my opinion....

dont have a clue but just got a phone call from them

this guy calls and says he is from the Dept of Defense.  He is fishing for info..........

These losers tried to call searching for information they were not entitled to while posing as a Tri-Care survey. Since there are so many reports here I have to wonder why hasn't the owner of this number been arrested and the message machine taken down for fraud? I got a warning email about this number being used this way 5 days ago so why the delay? This number has an address associated with it and law enforcement could drive over and remove this identity theft criminal any afternoon. Or they could just have the number terminated by the phone company right away and pick up the criminal later. Why leave this answering machine in operation?

Phone number 312-258-4260 is listed as registered to:

Ameritech Illinois
225 West Randolph Street
Chicago, IL 60606-1811

I wonder if they know that someone is using their company line to attempt identity theft against US service members?

I have not been personally contacted by this number, (312) 258-4260, by someone acting as Tricare representative.  It is a scam originating out of Chicago, IL.  Do not give out any PII (personally identifiable information) on yourself or anyone else for that matter.  

This is called PHISHING, and once they have your SSN, DOB (date of birth) and other data, they'll commit identity fraud, and cause all sorts of financial crimes and mayhem, ultimately affecting a persons' credit, potentially bankrupting the individual.  It'll take years to sort out the mess.

If you are contacted by ANYONE asking for PII, DO NOT give out any information, take down the number, hang up, and report it to your superiors.

Bogus!!!  They'll try to get your info to rip u off!!!

I received a call from this number yesterday.  Caller ID listed it as Synovate, Inc.  I wasn't home to answer it and they left no message.  Thank you for the info on here.  I'll be watching for these frauds.

They called using the name Aaron Sandoval, asking for my son who is in the military, when said to the person who gave you my number he hung up.  He tried to say that it was about a survey.
