Days after President Obama signed the $938 billion bill into law, a cable television advertisement exhorted viewers to call an 800-number so they wouldn’t miss a “limited enrollment” period to obtain coverage available “now that historic health-care legislation has passed.”
And there have already been reports of door-to-door salespeople peddling “Obamacare” insurance policies.
As NPR notes, the “bitter and divisive” debate over health reform has been a boon for the scam market, which has sought to exploit the public misconceptions about the bill. Given how quickly the “death panel” meme caught on — and how long such fabrications have persisted in the political discourse — the idea of purchasing an “Obamacare” insurance policy might not seem so far-fetched.
And as usual, the misinformed will be the ones most likely to be suckered in by con artists. That’s the price one pays for relying on Fox News and right-wing media for your information.

Yep! And I think the ones scamming are the ones that promote the lies, are tea party goers, and are rubbing their hands together in glee at not only the chance to scam their fellow Americans but also at the chance to stir up more hatred against the left because of their scamming ways
I figure anyone who chooses to remain ignorant deserves to get scammed. They refuse to watch any other news but fixed, so they have chosen to remain ignorant. Listening to BBC talk about things going on here, it is a real eye opener. But they want to believe the whole world is lying, only fixed news is telling them the truth. It’s a choice. I think I should start selling insurance……
Janine, that qualifies as the most ignorant comment I’ve heard you make. Are you seriously suggesting that a group of people who want less government, and who would put their names on the line to promote their beliefs, would be the same people who rip off another person? If they wanted it in place so they could scam people, why would they protest against it?
