called back..... no extensions work... report to ftc

Received a call at 8:33 am, eastern.  No message.  Called back.  Recorded voice asks for an extension, or hit 9 for a directory and then  "press 0 or hold for an attendant."  (Attendant?)  All entries were "invalid."  I have reported calls like this to the FTC, and was told there was nothing they or I could do to make them stop.  (I've been receiving collection calls for someone I don't know for years.)   If anyone has had a satisfying result from contacting the FTC, would you share the reporting method you used (telephone, web, email, posted letter) and I will try again.

This jackhole just called me - THIS IS A BOGUS CALL.. block if you can

"can i speak to the woman of the house?"

"who's calling?"

"*coughs*"

"who's calling?"

"oh sorry, i just want to speak to the woman of the house please?"

PBA scam of some kind. not interested, don't know why you're exempt from DO NOT CALL list. what part of DO NOT CALL don't they understand that they think i want to be bothered while i'm working for thier scam phone calls? FAIL!

Someone called me from this number at 0830. Asked, "Is Michael there?" I don't know this clown.  Why would he call me by my first name?  Identified himself as the "New Jersey Lodge of the PBA."

I just recieved the same call fromt his number. They left a message asking for Michael and leaving his "account number" along with her number and ext.

The first time ZI ecieved a call from this number was on 8-6-2010.The secomd time was on 8-9-2010 at 4:17pm.They asked if Jessie(My late dad) was home.I informed them that he was deceased.I got an apology.

Call came into my ans. mach. at 9:53 AM. They hung up ASAP. Very annoying because I was waiting for an important call. I screen most of my calls before a certain time.

Just got this call on Friday Aug 13 at 9:25. They asked for Kim and when I asked who, I could tell it was an automated voice. So I said "You have the wrong number" and it replied... Ok, Thank you very much. Sorry For the inconvenience...
very odd

Call came in 10:42 AM.  Male calling to collect for police widows, orphans, memorials for cops killed in line of duty.  Very, very persistent.  If I couldn't make a donation, then how much would I pledge and send in at later date.  They would send form to fill out.  Told him I had to make funeral arrangements and kept pushing for a pledge.  I said bye and hung up.  Someone call a week ago, hung up when the got ans. mach.

scam outfit trying to use police association to separate you from your money!  why do they hide there name on caller id?

PBA scam

Luckily for them I was not home at 8:48am when this call come through.  I called the number back, got an automated thing.  Stating the faternal order of police.  It offered a prompt to have my number deleted, so I did so.  Then I was able to leave a message at the end.  I stated,  please remove me from your calling list, you are wasting my time and yours.  I do not have money to donate and if I did, it would not be to the FOP.  Then I went on to say.  God Bless and your family.  God Bless, give Jesus a chance.  Now, if they dare call again.  My next message will be more than offensive.  It said it will take 72 hours to remove my number.   I am confident that this just another scam.

This phone number is calling to try to SCAM money for the Fraternal Order of Police. I have NOT called the number, nor will I.  It directs you to a customer service department that can answer questions using potentially manipulative techniques, help you waste your donation on fundraising fees, or anything else related to the FOP getting a small fraction of your donation, 12% to 27% Some fundraiser's pocket as much as 73% to 90% and up. Also, there’s information on www.badgefraud.org on the massive numbers of warnings put out by FOP Lodges that do not use so called professional fundraisers and Real Police and Sheriff and Fire Departments. But you can contact them there with any questions or requests.

BadgeFraud (dot) org is doing a lot of really great things for POLICE OFFICERS FAMILIES and the people that post are NOT trying to raise money, they are trying to protect the money of the people who protect us, and that is something very good.
