Appeared legit?
Centers for Disease Control (CDC) doing survey on kids vaccinations. Asked "qualifying questions" Any kids living in home under 4? No. Any under 18? No. Disqualified. Was a black woman who was obviously working off a computer screen. She was carefully reading each question, entering my response and then waiting for the next question to prompt her from the CRT. This woman was urban black - some accent but totally intelligible, followed the script perfectly, likely heavily supervised.
I could not verify the number called from (no caller ID) and the person represented herself to be working FOR CDC but was not CDC. CDC IS conducting surveys see: http://www.cdc.gov/vaccines/imz-managers/nis/about.html
Conclusion: high probability they are legit but caller ID would help.
CDC is a very good group, does very good medical research for the health of the entire country. Suggest cooperation.
