After answering a call from this number, it was in fact the sheriffs assoc. wanting money. I told them that donate locally and to remove me from the list. NOw , after 2 years, I am down to receiving only 2 calls per day. Just one of the plights we seem to be forced to endure in this free society.
I've contacted the local sheriff's dept who told me the NEVER solicit funding via telephone. Whomever it is doing this donates about 2 percent of received funds to law enforcement, to prevent being sued for fraud, pocketing the rest for crack and ho's. It's a scam. I have learned to let the phone ring. Don't bother me. They just want you to get pissed enough to answer the phone, showing that there's someone at the number.
Unless you are a lawyer, just write these con men off as fishermen of the gullible.
...or else ask them if they've heard about how Jesus can save them from their wicked, wicked ways...works every time.
Just tell them to send out the packet of tickets or whatever, they send it UPS and just refuse it. It costs them money and next time they won't call. Oh, when they call to ask why you refused the packet, say - oh my was that from you? send it again please! repeat
After a few thousand of UPS fees they will go pound sand.
