A woman called from this number asking for my wife by name (first name only). I told her that she was not here, but that I expected her to be home shortly. The caller hung up without a word---unexpected and, I think, rude. A bit bedazzled by this abrupt call, I dialed the number and got an answering machine. The message said it was the "committee for missing children" and that they were in their "fund raising phase." I looked 'em up online and the place is a legit organization (this is their link: http://www.findthekids.com/ ), but I'd never give my credit card number to a cold call. Instead, I'd go to the organization's web site to make a donation (always a smart strategy . . . anybody can call and claim to be someone legit seeking money).
