This fundraising is being conducted by Legacy Telemarketing. If you call them at 425 252 3001 they will place you on their do not call list. Although charities can call people on the do-not-call list, their professional fundraisers are supposed to respect it. Although Breast Cancer is a worthy cause, the Better Business Bureau recommends against BCPF due to their failure to file reports with BBB.

My husband picked up their call one day, offered to donate to the Breast Cancer Prevention Fund. When we received our statement, they charged us TWICE. We called our credit card company to cancel one of the charges. We tried to contact them regarding this 'mistake', but no one returned our calls nor they apologized for making such a 'mistake'. I DO NOT TRUST THEM! I believe any legitimate organization will try to contact donors and thank them for their generous donation instead of ignoring them.

BCPF IS NOT A CHARITY! They are not registered as a recognized federal charity. THEY ARE ALMOST CERTAINLY A SCAM!
To look up recognized fedral charities that are allowed to operate in California, go to the California State Attorney General website

Spoofed Numbers: Caution, 213-256-0051 is a "spoofed" number, which means that whoever called you "tricked" your caller ID to display an incorrect phone number. Telemarketers do this so you cannot complain, but they failed... you can still file a complaint here to fight back against unethical telemarketers.
