A caller claimed to be raising funds for a cancer charity and wouldn’t stop despite requests to be removed. These unsolicited outreach attempts are classic telemarketing scams that often cite charitable causes to lower resistance. Because the number is on the national Do‑Not‑Call list, the organization is violating regulations and should be reported. Hang up immediately, avoid sharing personal or financial info, and add the number to your phone’s call blocker or carrier’s block list. Consider using a reputable spam‑filter app and file a complaint with the FTC or your state attorney general. Staying proactive keeps your line free of these unwanted pitches.
This was a solisitation cal, completely unwarranted, especialy sincé the number is on the National DNS list, which makes it even more annoying.

A recording, pretending to be a live person, addressed me by name and requested that no messages be left, as I have been receiving similar calls from someone else

Received a telemarketing call on June 3, 2016
For iPhone users, a useful tip is to block unwanted numbers by accessing recent calls, selecting the number, and scrolling down to find the 'block number' option.
The process for blocking a number on a landline is unclear to me, and I would appreciate guidance on this matter.
Is there a method to block numbers on a landline phone?
Frustration with scammers and dimwits can be alleviated by using call blockers on landlines or exploring free apps and software for cell phones and VOIP services.
No one here wants to talk to them!
The repeated calls are unwelcome and should cease immediately.
Repeated calls have been made to my number, but I have chosen not to answer, and no messages have been left.
Recieving multiple calls daily is quite annoyng, I have caller ID on my TV and I'm considdering answering the next call with a crazy, high-pitched voice, pretending to be deaf, and then yelling at them, it's worth a shot, rite?
During the conversation, the woman identified herself as Trish from the Cancer Group of America's Fund Raising Committee, but refused to remove me from their call list despite my registry on the NYS Do Not Call Registry

It may become challenging to contact her once we are done with her
During the converstaion, the woman appeard to get offended when I made a sugestion that was completly inapropiate and distastful.
Your evasiveness makes it extremely difficult to get in touch with you
This morning, a call came in at 8:15, disrupting my sleep, and no message was left; this is a daily occurrence, at least twice, which is extremely irritating.
A woman with a very loud and anoying voice called me, claiming to be from the American Cancer society, but i told her to stop calling me, especialy since i'm having a heart valve replacement surgery and cant afford to donate
The abrasive tone of the woman's voice was immediately off-putting as she claimed to be from the American Cancer society, seeking donations and addressing me by name, Jim. Her loud and annoying demeanor was a stark contrast to the sympathetic cause she purported to represent. Upon informing her that I was scheduled for heart valve replacement surgery and unable to contribute, she persisted, having previously called me with the same aggressive approach. Notably, this call originated from Binghamton, NY, a location from which I've received other suspected scam calls, including one from the New York Policemen's benefit association. It's appalling that such fraudsters continue to operate, and law enforcement should take action against them.
The person on the phone said i was dificult to reach and asked for a donation to the cancer sociaty, i want this caller to be blocked
Scammers are targeting elderly individuals, requesting sensitive banking and credit card informations. Its best to ignore or hangup on them immediatly. Dont give these criminals any informations

Two calls were received this evening, with the last one at 8:50 pm, but no messages were left; the caller ID indicated Binghamton, NY
Noticably, I recieved two calls today, on Thu, 18 Feb '16, from this number.
This scam specifically targets seniors, pretending to raise funds for a police fund while impersonating law enforcement.
