LifeProtect247 Intercepts Call to BCBS

A bbb report about a phishing scam that cost someone $149.99. Learn how to avoid falling victim.

Source: bbb | Scam Type: Phishing | Amount Lost: $149.99 | Date: April 09, 2026
I was attempting to reach Blue Cross Blue Shield, but while I was waiting for BCBS to respond, a person interrupted and said I could win a free offer from LifeProtect247. The equipment for two people would be free and I would pay $149.99 every quarter for the service, and I could end it at any time. That fee is pending with my credit card company, and I am trying to cancel it. She told me to call a number, but that number doesn't match the LifeProtect247 phone number. I asked to be switched back to BCBS, and she said she couldn't do that, so I called BCBS again, and they said they had no arrangement with LifeProtect247.
