Yesterday afternoon, a wave of calls labeled “Health Council” started popping up on consumer phones, and many recipients flagged them as suspicious. The repeated spoofed caller ID matches reports of fraudulent outreach that pretends to represent a health‑related nonprofit, often weaving in buzzwords like breast‑cancer research to add credibility. Callers typically hang up without leaving a message, relying on curiosity to lure a callback. If you receive such a call, let it go to voicemail, verify the organization’s official number on its website, and report the number to your carrier or the FTC. Blocking the source can also curb future disturbances.
I recieve a call from this number, but they didnt leave no message, the caller id say health council tho.
My suspicions were confirmed by the first post after this number came up as "Health Council:" and left no message, prompting me to block it.
A call masquerading as the 'Health Council' turned out to be a spoofed number scam, with the caller, Michelle Marino, abruptly ending the call when questioned about the specifics of the alleged contribution.
