Amen Sal. God I wish there were more people like you!
Scammers prey on peoples emotions and gullibility. It's good for the scammers becuase it keeps the operation going. A caller MUST identify themselves. Period, regardless of DNC list.
Folks telemarketing scams are on the rise. Google Obama will pay your heating bill.
If you don't know the number, if they ARE ASKING FOR a CREDIT CARD and PERSONAL INFORMATION over the phone, just hang up!!!
The first thing the called state is that this organization ISN'T ENDORSED BY ANY CANDIDATE!!
That should be your first sign that it is scammers.
Even political calls MUST state the organization. If you call the number back I guarantee it is disconnected! What a shocker! The caller ID is spoofed/faked. All they are doing is deceiving you to steal your credit card information. DONT BE STUPID PEOPLE!
Warn others and report to appropriate authorities.
I don't care which party or president you want to contribute too. People need to be aware of telemarketing scams becuase this year there is a huge spike. If you work hard for yor money you deserve to keep it, not have it deceivingly stole from you. Especially in this economy. It's a sad world we live in.
If you want to contribute to any candidate, I Guarantee you that you can give your money ONLINE (hello folks) or to a local/state known and respected organization.
Be smart folks. Save your money. NEVER EVER give out personal nor financial information over the phone. ESPECIALLY to random callers.
Report and warn. Hope this helps. Visit FCC, FBI, and FTC website for more information.
