Phone Scam Warning

RCMS will never cold call you or ask for personal information over the phone. A patient recently informed us that they received a call from someone soliciting donations for RCMS and attempted to obtain their credit card information. These calls are not from us. If any company calls you and asks for your personal information, that is a red flag and you should immediately alert your phone carrier company.
