I have received several calls from this number trying to get contributions for Obama. I support Obama, but these callers are absolutely rude in pursuading you to contribute via automatic monthly deductions from your debit/credit cards. I told them no, but noticed a deduction on my next credit card account bill! When I called, apparently it was listed as a monthly approved deduction of $50 monthly! I cannot think of any time I would have given this group my credit card number and obviously this is just another scam. I called the number shown on my credit card bill and told them to repay the amount removed from my account and absolutely none in the future. I intend to support the Democratic party, but not in that manner.
Caller acted as though he was with the Democratic National Committee. He even knew how much we had donated last month to the organization and wanted me to pledge something every month "to help keep Obama in office". Said a check would take too much time and is expensive to process. Wanted the credit card no., of course. I told him we have a policy of not giving that out over the phone, EVER. He started shouting me down so I just hung up on him. Whan I want to know is how he knew the exact amount we had given to the DNC last month. It pisses me off. Something's amiss here.
I am a DO NOT CALL. They were very evasive as to who they were and had the wrong first name for my wife. I asked them to take me off the list. How am I getting so many of these lately when we are DO NOT CALL?
