610-391-6900

Woman claimed to be from AARP. Then she started asking a lot of personal information about me and said she could not tell me why she was calling unless I gave her all my identifying information. I told her to take my number off her list and never call me again. Then I hung up. I doubt she was calling from AARP. Who has this number?

I believe that 610-391-6900 is a scam.  AARP told me that they do not make these type of calls, that you are offered a pendant to wear around your neck, $100 worth of groceries, etc.  HANG UP!!!

One of my senior clients received a call from this number and wanted personal identifying information to include date of birth and social security number.  NEVER give out that information to a person who has contacted you.  SCAM ALERT

Caller said from United Health.  Asked for birthdate before would give reason for call.....BEWARE.....this is a scam call to get your information....do NOT give any information to these callers!

I received a call from this number the ID on my phone said Ardmore PA but the phone history said Allentown PA. There was no one on the line.

It's simply a welcome call from United Healthcare's AARP Medicare supplemental insurance department. They didn't ask for any sensitive information – simply welcomed me to my new policy (which I had just obtained), asked if I had any questions, and gave me an 800 number for customer service. I even told the woman calling that I'd paid my first montth's premium by credit card, and she didn't ask me for the credit card number (or any other personal info other than my name at the very beginning if the call).

I hate scam calls as much as anyone, but some of the individuals making "scam" reports to this web site are downright delusional. Every call you get is not a "scam," people. Get a grip.

Same here.  Received this welcome courtesy call from AARP UnitedHealthcare rep.  No important personal info was requested and after me asking questions, good info was received.  I have to say a red flag went up to have a company cold-call me  as a courtesy, when so many offer 800 phone numbers you can use to call them if you have questions, so I understand why many might automatically go there and say its a scam.

Received a call from this number and the women said she was with AARP and before she could tell me what the call was about she needed to verify I was me and asked for my birth date & social security number.   Said I could call AARP main number and they would verify the call.  I may be retired but you never ever give this information out.  If they are calling to welcome you they shouldn't have to verify you are who you are.  

I believe they asked for the last 4 digits of your Social a security number after telling you the call was about your supplemental insurance from United (through AARP). They need to confirm you are the person on the policy because the call involves the transfer of medical information which is strictly confidential. No one from United Healthcare or AARP has ever asked for my full Social Security number.

Called asking me questions but could not tell my why.

Don't be too sure it's for real, since scammers are known to "borrow" legitimate phone numbers.  We've received a call from the AT&T directory number, which has been used by scammers in the past. If we don't recognize the number or the caller ID, we don't answer.  If the caller won't leave a message, it's likely to be a scam of some kind.  Think I'm paranoid?  After having such calls three or four times a day for several days in a row, I have a right to be.

Get calls from PA every day. Same thing. Wish they would stop calling. I screen my calls and they never leave a message. If it's that important they would.

OK here is the scoop on this. The caller ID says AARP Member Advantage. When you pick up the phone (which I never do) there is no one there just like a robo/telemarketer call. So, when you call the number back, a recording gives you a 800 number of AARP to call. OK the 800 number is a real number with a live person. I asked them why did someone call on that (610) number and then hang up.
She says its a "computer" that calls. Needless to say I told her that even though I am a AARP member I would like to be placed on your DNC list. Just in case I blocked the number. Is this what our dues pay for?

Why do people find it necessary to be ignorant and call other peoples names. I am NOT delusional, and I know the company name connected to this number is Catalyst 360. I called AARP directly at 1-888-OUR-AARP and was told they have absolutely no connection with a company named Catalyst 360. This is NOT simply a welcome call from AARP. AARP does not know how this company got a lod of my information. Maybe an employee at AARP sells it illegally. But they did have SOME of my information but not all of it. I provided AARP with my birthday and cell phone number only. Catalyst 360 called my HOME number which AARP does not have and Catalyst 360 did not have my birthday which AARP does have. NEVER, NEVER give information out to a call you received, always initiate the call yourself. These scammers are very good at what they do and they have just enough information about all of us to make it sound like a legitimate call. So to the person who posted originally, once again I am not delusional and I do have a grip. But this number is NOT associated with AARP and that comes from AARP themselves.

Carl is correct and JB does not know what he/she is speaking about. Millions of social security numbers have been stolen in recent years. All an identity thief needs to know is birthday, name and social security number. So giving them the last four digits is no longer safe if you do not know for sure who you are speaking with. And when somebody calls you, you really have no idea who you are speaking with. Always make the call yourself. Thieves can now do a database search for the last four digits of a social security number and easily match it to a name and birthday. I know who I am, I don't need to confirm my identity to someone who calls me. Regardless of what JB says, I will never give personal information to someone who calls me claiming they need to know my identity. If JB continues this behavior he/she will become a victim.
