Collection agency demands payment for blood tests that didn’t happen

A News10NBC investigation looks into payment demands for blood tests that never happened. At least one of viewers was called by a lab and a collection agency demanding payment for bloods tests that she says never happened.

Gahhhh. The medical scammers are some of the worst. People are already under stress because of whatever their medical issues are without the additional stress of fighting over a non-existent bill.

Almost a year after Estiveo's Mom died, I got a bill from a "mobile lab" for bloodwork she supposedly had done. The date of service was not only long after her death, but also several months after the doctor who supposedly ordered it had died in a freak rock climbing accident. They were sending me the bill because Medicare had denied the claim.
I sent their paperwork to Medicare with a letter detailing all relevant dates, and cc'd the mobile lab using their return mail envelope. Never heard from them again.

The time they take tying up the scammer's time is time they aren't ripping other people off. It also helps spread the word for people to be careful.
This scammer keeps screaming at what would be an older lady. Kitboga is great at stalling, asking ridiculous questions, using multiple voices with some sort of voice camouflager, and keeps breaking down crying. The scammer is horrible, he couldn't care less and just keeps asking for the money. He wastes days of a this creep's time.
It's also really funny how he ties them in knots.

He claims towards the end he and his team have helped individuals and gained information for fraud investigators that would be explained in future videos.

Steve works together with other antiscammers that are more into the hacking trade, that attempt to take down scam centers in India. Also one non-profit in the US that works together with US police to track local scammers and money mules.

Laughed so hard I cried and choked on water listening to him "panic" while spending the gift cards he "bought" for the scammer to pay a "ransomware virus fee" he made up. The scammer SCREAMS "No no no don't do it!" and he's CRYING hysterically (as an older lady) "I videotaped all my grandkids' births! I have to pay it!" Oh my God, he’s hilarious.
We did crazy stuff as kids (NOT SCAMS!) but pre-internet. One favorite weekend drinking game was calling people from Weekly World News stories to see if they were real. Once, there was a spread about "The Laziest Man Alive" with a kitchen built around his bed etc. Directory assistance had his number. WWN left out one detail—the poor guy was paralyzed from the neck down! De minimis for WWN. We were compassionate; many were thrilled to get a call from across the country and would chat with us. No internet back then.
If there's enough interest, maybe I'll explain what was behind the headline: "Oh My God, It's Bernice!"

Well, I for one always refer to professional wrestlers for my financial advise. I also rely on Mattel for all my automotive questions, and on Pillsbury for my medical issues.

Coffezilla fires back:
What ever insurance he was relying on is less than forthcoming in terms of coverage so Coffee is passing the hat and selling merch.
In my no way qualified opinion the facts and evidence in the Logan v Coffee suit weigh heavily for the defendant but the money disparity is off the charts.
Liquid Marketplace sounds interesting.

I was just coming to post that.
The grifter is going to learn the hard way.
His lawyers possess questionable skills.

Note: devices that still support 2G are at riskGoogle warns against new tool for scammers
FOX59 News
6 Aug 2024
So-called “SMS blasters” are like miniature cell phone towers that put out a signal that can tri your smartphone into connecting to it instead of your regular network. The devices are small enough for crooks to drive around with them in their car. There have been some reports of scammers walking around with them in their backpacks.

The older devices that support 3G and some of 4G continue to have the 2G support. When the signal of the scam box is stronger than the original of the provider cell tower it will switch, the box of course needs to mimic the correct provider. The video recommends deactivating 2G support, while possible on Android devices, impossible on Apple.
