The person who called said he was asking for donations for some local veterans of Illinois. I said no not right now because I had been giving to several differents orgs and he then had the nerve to ask who, I said to animal rescues, political orgs, etc. he then told how can I say no to the people who keep me safe he said more but I can't remember everything because I have never had anyone asking for money be so rude because I said no. I then told him how dare he question me about who I donate my money to! And because he was so sarcastic and condescending to me, that I would not even consider donating to the "veterans" group he was referring to, he said that was ok because there were plenty of others who would be more than willing to donate .
There are so many veterans groups out there today and some are scams. I rather doubt this organization was legitimate and if it was that the veterans received much money from them.
Just got this call, picked up and hear tones/music. I have a network tracing device for VOIP and make the comment "I wonder how long it will take to trace these [***] since they appear to be local off same Comcast Network, wow no sooner did I finish saying that and the line went dead. New rule in my house, no donations for ANY cold caller, not even my own church. Send me info in mail and break down of who gets what, show up and get abusive and leave in a squad car, cross my door step and leave in a box
