Calls made to the (864) number are picked up by FirstQuote Health, a subsidiary for the BBB-accredited sales lead generator NextGen Leads, LLC, which was founded by former Google employee Chris Kelly in 2014.
They are located at 701 B St Ste 1255 San Diego, CA 92101-8187.
While the company has a grade of A+ with the Better Business Bureau, they also hold a 1.2-star review on TrustPilot. User complaints on the two platforms revealed a series of dark patterns by the company, such as:
- Collecting personal information about their victims, including SOCIAL SECURITY NUMBERS, via FirstQuote Health, “free iPhone” and retail rebate voucher scams.
- Selling leads of individuals who gave false identities, already received insurance from other providers or disconnected their phone line to licensed insurance agents who are refused refunds.
- Calling victims as much as 50 times per day with various numbers.
- Calling victims who pressed 9 to be “added to their do-not-call list.”
- Calling victims under the guise of the “Health Registration Company.”
