The Mephis area must need something to do besides call people. This was my second 901 call in a short amount of time. The man claims to be from some Firefighters Association. He asked how I was doing tonight and I told him I wan't feeling well. He abruptly says that he will call me another time and hangs up! I decided to check out the number here since I had been receiving calls from other 901 numbers. 901-881-2190 & 901-254-8953 reportedly to be associated with Saint Jude Children's Research Hospital. I know of some very nice people in Memphis and all over the state. All of the scammers, telemarketers or whatever you call yourselves, get a life! Other people do, and they have better things to do than answer the phone all day.
Just received a call. They said they were calling in regard to this being Breast Cancer month and wanted to verify my address and asked for a donation of $25.00 toward Breast Cancer research and said I would get a letter in mail in few days for me to send the donation. Before I thought, I gave my address and told them I would donate. After I hung up, I thought that it might not be legitimate. I called the number back and got a recording that they were unavailable and to leave a message and then a recording saying their mail box was full and could not accept any more messages. How do I handle this?
Same info as Dee, to a point. Caller stated, "We would, of course, send you an envelope in the mail, so can the ladies in need depend on your support?" me, "No, I can't at this time; I have no income." Caller, "O wow." & hung up while I was still talking. Going to find out if this is legit......highly doubt.
