The only reason the National Reply Center exists is to collect and verify information about Americans who are at or near the age where they'll retire, be eligible for Social Security, and/or Medicare. In various incarnations the same postcard has advertised prescription drug coverage, health insurance products, and as below, life insurance.

Odd. Somewhat clever, I suppose.



Nice way to make some money too. Fill out a few of these to get a ton of spam. Then sell it. Sure, it'll only be a few cents a kg, but it'd still be free.
