I masked my number and called them back. Immediately got a recording from "Americans veterans support foundation" . What is disturbing s the caller ID said Gaithersburg MD which makes it look like a Dr calling. I am pretty sure this is a CON!!! Do not donate to these people!!!!
I googled Americans veterans support foundation and it says they keep 86% of the money they collect for admin so they are ripping off veterans!!!
Another caller pretending to represent a "cause". Usually never answer the phone, but did this time, with the intent to vent my unhappiness. There was a long pause before some dude started blathering about the Veterans support blah blah blah blah. Hard to get in a word in the midst of the drivel being presented. Am pretty sure these jokers have called before (from a different number) - they seem to have an "interesting attitude" - rude scammers, wonder how that can ever work?
My mother had received similar calls. I am convinced that people have used the loopholes in DNCR in order to scam people out of their money.
To be honest I have donated clothing and electronics to a local veterans group and they have never attempted to call me and that gives me hope about some organizations.
