Free annual physicals?

They say there’s no such thing as a free lunch, so I guess that goes for free medical checkups too, right? 🙂 I’ve been scouring the internet and even this forum, but I can't find a single thing about this specific setup. What's the deal here... just some random phone call out of nowhere hitting me right in the gut, offering this "free" preventative screening right at my front door—supposedly for heart disease, cancer, all that good stuff—using these fancy specialized machines. Does anyone actually know what's going on? Look, I'm not exactly naive, so I'm assuming this little "checkup" is just a Trojan horse to pitch a bunch of services or products that definitely aren't free. Or maybe it's something even sketchier, like a full-blown scam? Or...?

You’re never actually going to shake them off. They'll spend months harassing you via mail and phone calls right after that little "specialized screening" (since when does a fancy machine magically prevent cancer?), all just to try and upsell you on their own overpriced products.
My mother-in-law ran into a similar scam...

You honestly wouldn't believe it, but I actually got a call at my house just the other day. 😂
It’s all just a tactic to reel people in—they’ll offer you everything under the sun, from stock options to various little incentives, just to ensure you end up paying more in the long run.
It feels remarkably similar to those aggressive timeshare pitches or those jewelry scams you see popping up everywhere—just endless consumer nonsense, whatever.

Does anyone know if there are any free breast cancer screenings or checkups floating around lately? Any info at all? 😕

They actually called us today 🤣 Kazo about some preventive checkups. Apparently, they're coming straight to our house because they’re doing research ahead of America joining the EU. Has anyone else had them visit? Any idea what kind of equipment they were selling? If it had been me, I would've swiped them, but unfortunately, my mom answered 😠
