Scamming elderly persons. Deducted directly from checking account without authorization. Not sure how they even acquired the information to do so. Somehow came up with an account number. Anyone can find the routing number to any bank. The "check" didn't even have a signature on it, but a typed name with "No Signature Needed: Authorized By - " on it. That's a problem. The back of the check had no endorsement on it either. Not sure how this gets through the banking system, but it did. This happened to my elderly mother. Anyway, I've called all numbers listed and seems as though there are 3 or 4 "businesses" that are involved. Secure Medical Group is the initiator, Third Party (888-778-0073) is the name of the so-called customer service center hired by SMG and another listed as the financial company (866-678-3482) that conducted the actual transaction. But all over the "check" is something called YR Benefits. Third Party told me the Secure Medical Group address is 3106 State Route 11, Suite 135, Mooers Forks, NY 12959 but I'm not sure that address actually exists.
