They keep calling and will not leave a message.

They're starting to call again. I don't answer calls w/ "unavaible" and out of state. Some other sites say they are either "card services" or "Veteran's Fund" - both "scammers". Looked at my log of scammers and they have called 15 times this year - 2011, last call from this # was 7-20-11.

This number shows up on my caller ID sometimes 3 times a day!

Wrong post..delete previous post

July 02 - 4:00 PM 5th call from this number today, there is never an answer on the other end.  Called number back again and left message to be added to their Do Not Call list.  Calls started about 2 weeks ago and thus far have received over 20 calls.

They hung up when I asked who was calling - I called the number back and got a voice mail for the "Fundraising Office" but they never said who they were raising funds for.  What legitimate group doesn't identify themselves in an automated answering message?

This is actually a telemarketer calling on behalf of this "charity." They call every day, sometimes twice a day and never leave a message.  When I do answer I get dead air for at least 5 seconds and then usually a hang-up.  Today I got a very polite gentleman who identified himself and the organization and said he'd take me off their calling list.  I won't hold my breath.

They have a rating of zero stars.  No surprise, as 88% of the money they raise goes to pay for -- you guessed it -- fundraising!  

In 2010, Daily Finance reported that they were on the list of the "20 worst charities in America" according to Oregon's attorney general.

QUOTE:
Oregon Attorney General John Kroger released a list of what he calls the 20 Worst Charities, hoping that consumers would make sure to avoid scams and give money to those groups who actually put it to good use."In the middle of a recession, it is more important than ever that generous Oregonians make charitable contributions to organizations that help veterans and others who are in need," said Kroger.

i keep getting calls from this number. sometimes more than once a day. i want it to stop.

Many calls per day from this phone number. They engage my answering machine, but never leave a message.

Idiot calls my number. Asks for someone but can't pronounce the correct name. Doh! Asks me to tell the person he's looking for that "JT called, he knows who I am". I told him he was a fckn idiot and hung up.

Calls several times a day. So annoying.

Get calls several times a day from this number, no one ever says anything, then hang up. Irritating to say the least. Got a good mind to have the computer dial back that number ever 5 minutes!

ID says "Washington DC"  must be the president wanting my advise........lol  
get these calls 3-4 times a day, I never answer.  legit callers leave a message.....

They have been calling daily for a week, when I asked them to take my number off their list, they only asked "Who is this
rather than agreeing. I asked multiple times but they would not agree. I am reporting them to the FCC and the Do Not Call registry.

They call every day, often several times. Now that I know they're scammers, they'll never get another answer from me. Or any money, either.
