An Attempted Medical Billing Scam

 The following pdfs below is the latest attempt to scam me out of $500.00. It is a fake bill from some scammer claiming to be in the Offices of Mitchell D. Bluhm & Associates, LLC. I am posting it because the public should be aware that this scammer is out to steal their hard earned money.

There are three addresses to this attempt to scam me, and I know that every word with in this scammer’s letter is a lie. Moreover, I do not owe St. Anthony’s Hospital anything, and as there are hundreds of hospitals around the world with the same name, I sincerely doubt that it is the one that I know. I have neither contacted this Offices of Mitchell D. Bluhm & Associates, LLC, nor do I intend to do so. I doubt that they are real. Even if the law office is real, this scammer could be using their name.

 Should you also get such a letter in the mail my advice is report it and trash it, or simply -- trash it.

More importantly, never reply and never ever send money. 




Normally, I would have just shredded this type of letter, but this one just reminded me that there are tens of millions of elderly men and women just like me who are probably receiving this fake bill, and I can only hope this post will be of help to some of them by stopping them from falling for, at least, this scammer.
