Last night, your phone rang with a display that read “LSU,” yet the call left no message and felt more like a pushy fundraiser than a genuine alumni outreach. When a number repeatedly contacts you, especially after hours, it’s wise to verify the source before sharing any personal data. Check the caller ID, then cross‑reference the number on the official LSU Foundation website or contact their annual‑giving office directly. If the call seems unsolicited or persists after you’ve asked to be removed, consider adding the number to your block list and filing a complaint with the FTC. Staying skeptical and keeping records of call times can protect you from both scams and aggressive telemarketing.
On 09-28-18 at 7:50 pm, this number called and left no voicemail, with no caller ID available.
The call appeared suspicious, with no ID provided, and resembled a call from Chase bank, but no message was left after not being answered.
Despite being asked to stop, LSU Foundation continues to call, even on Sunday nights at 9:00 PM EST, after obtaining my cell phone number through external sources.
About 10 minutes ago, at 6:00 PM CST on a Sunday, this number called my cell, but no message was left after I didn't answer.
It's possible that scammers have spoofed this number, as they often use legitimate numbers, including those from Chase or Bank of America, to make calls, highlighting the need to direct frustration at the scammers rather than the owners of the spoofed numbers.
It seem like LSU has been calling me alot, 4 times in the last 2 weeks, even on sunday during dinner, which is really annoying
It seems pretty stupid to call sombody at 8:02 P.M. on a sunday, and whoever is doing this should realy stop. Otherwise, Im just going to block this number.
If these calls are legit, why dont they leave a polite mesage with a return number, thats whats expected from the LSU Foundation
Hello Mr Evans, thank you for your coment, I will share your feedback with our annual giving director

Despite having no personal connection to LSU, I received a call from this number, leaving me puzzled as to why I was contacted.
Regardless of the legitimacy of the call, contacting someone after 9 p.m. is considered impolite.
My cell phone recived a call on Sunday afternoon at 4:30, didnt leave a message, this is the third or fourth time Ive gotten a call like this.
On March 2, 2016, at 6:55 P.M. CST, these frauds became increasingly pushy
On Valentine's Day 2016, I received a call with the same deceitful tactics, which I did not believe.
This number, initially thought to be associated with LSU due to the caller ID, is believed to be scamming, pretending to be from the Alumni Association. The actual connection to the university is highly doubted.
it is LSU FOUNDATION
This has been confirmed as a scam by the LSU Alumni Association, especially considering calls are made after 4:30 pm when their office is closed.
LSU Alumni Association confirmed this is not their number, especially since they call during office hours, which end at 4:30 pm.
LSU's Alumni Association periodically calls to solicit donations, and I've found that it's more effective to answer and decline their requests rather than ignoring them, as they'll stop calling for a while.
The caller id, says it's from LSU, thats all
