Called my cell at 1:45 on a Saturday afternoon. After reading these comments I'm sticking with my policy of not answering unknown numbers. If it's real, they'll leave me a message. Meanwhile I hope congress and consumer organizations succeed in forcing telephone companies to intercept robocalls.
Just received another call from this number. Get about 2 to 3 a month. I do not answer anymore since 1st one tried to solicit donation and did not want to take no for an answer.
Well known fake charity that says they are soliciting funds to "help wounded and killed police officers and their families." Only problem is, they spend most of the money for staff and fundraising and very little on "helping" anyone.
They are NOT a charitable org. They are NOT non-profit. And your donations to them are NOT tax deductible.
There's a page about these people and those like them on the Texas Attorney General's website.
I find it useless to engage these robots OR live persons in conversation - I can do far more wise things than that with my time. Besides, once you pick up their call, they know you're still receiving calls and become a prime target for future calls for money. I just mute them and go about my day's work.
