Just got a call from an unknown caller which I didn't answer. When my answering machine answered a male voice started talking over it asking for me by my first name. When he realized it was an answering machine he hung up. Suspect either police or firefighters charity scam.
Same as above scamming people out of money. People need to report these phone numbers to the FTC of the "Do Not Call Registry Complaint Department" to stop these annoying scammers/telemarketers once and for all. It just takes a few minutes of your time to do this people. Do not just block the phone number, report it online at the Do Not Call Registry site. Thank you.
