Call came in as a cellular call. Said he was calling for the Firefighters of America. I asked him if he was a firefighter and he said firefighters were in firehouses ready to save my life. Before he got into his canned talking points where he would "encourage" me to give him my cc # for a donation, I asked how he got my name and number and this is when he got EXTREMELY RUDE! He said he would forward the recorded conversation to my local firehouse...
These calls are NOT for the benefit of Firefighters or Police. They are professional solicitors who keep almost everything they can scam from you for themselves.
Received a call from 30-412-0363. Guy said he was seeking donations for the Firefighters of America. He knew my name and my address. He asked for my credit card number to make a small donation. Told him I don't give out my credit card information over the phone to someone I don't know. He said he will mail me a donation form and hung up. I have Calls Blacklist Pro on my phone and will add this number to it.
I have no idea how, but for some reason, this number has been calling my cell phone during the night time. I've been very careful with releasing my cell phone number onto the internet, but they have found it. The only thing I can think of is if someone had my number in the past. It's RIDICULOUS!
