She just called, I let her talk because she talked so fast. Cancer Fund, etc, etc.....she said she was calling from Tennessee but my phone id said it was an Ohio call. When I questioned her re that, she hung up.
Looked up Cancer Fund of America.....BBB says to be cautious...... I read that a majority of the donations do not get to the people who need it.
This is why I generally ignore my phone. I only answered today because I thought it was a genuine Ohio call.
I talked to the person who was very nice and understanding when I said we couldn't help this year. Then she got pushy and insisted I would agree to send something within 5 business days if they mailed me a pledge card. She wanted my credit card number. By this time I was getting doubtful and told her to forget it. I hung up.
Thanks for the posts! I also get that call all the time and i always check my caller Id and do not answer! I even have privacy manager...but the telemarketers are exempt!!! There has got to be a way to block all of these kinds of calls!
