Watch out, a wave of spoofed Obama campaign calls is hitting phones across the country. Callers flash the president’s name on caller ID, then push a scripted fundraising pitch that often feels like a scam or aggressive telemarketing. They rarely leave voicemails and may hang up if you answer. To protect yourself, let the call go to voicemail, block the number, and report it to your carrier’s spam‑blocking service. If you’ve already given personal info, monitor accounts for fraud and consider a credit freeze. Remember, legitimate campaign offices never pressure you for money on a cold call.
This number calls me nearly every day, it's really anoying, they dont leave a message, it's just a nuisence, i wish they would stop calling.
Daily calls from this number have started recently, but the nature of the calls is unknown since I don't answer unrecognized numbers and no voicemail is left.
Similar experiences have been reported, with this number making repeated calls without leaving messages, suggesting a potential scam.
Apparently, this organization is legitimate in principle, being the President's campaign fundraising organization, known as Obama for America.
This call appears to be from a right wing funded group attepmting to scam supporters of President Obama or individuals who previosly gave to his campaign
It appears that this number is associated with a right-wing group attempting to deceive Obama supporters by posing as fundraisers for his re-election campaign. Individuals should be aware that these calls are scams perpetrated by those opposing the President.
apparently, this number is funded by a right-wing group aiming to upset supporters of President Obama's re-election campaign.
I've received multiple calls from this number, with the caller ID showing 'Obama,' and the caller attempted to solicit funds for the Obama for America Team 2012, making false claims and misrepresentations.
Following weeks of calls from this number, it has become clear that it is likely related to political telemarketing, and as such, calls from this number are now being sent directly to voicemail.
This number has been calling non-stop, and now that it has been identified as a political fundraising call, the plan is to answer and request that the calls cease, which is not an effective way to maintain support from past donors.
I was contacted by someone claiming to be from "Team 2012", they were asking me to make my donation to the Obama campaign a monthly gift, but when I asked if I could do it online, they became agressive and rude, even asking if I thought it was a scam, wich is exacly what I think
Darryl need to calm down, thats my oppinion
Over the past few weeks, I have received multiple calls daily, which appear to be part of a scam that has been reported in other areas of the country.
A similar experience was reported, coinciding with an event scheduled for 11-09-2011 at 2:14 pm, which initially seemed related to EBS performance.
The same number has been calling us, claiming to be from OBAMA, but we haven't answered and they just hang up, making me wonder when this will stop
This number is used by a professional campaign fundraising company that targets registered Republicans and Democrats, asking for donations, which seems to be an inappropriate way to raise funds.
Apparently, they claimed to be from Obama's team, but their company is actually called Owner Services Group, and they've called me nearly 70 times before hanging up
Multiple daily calls from this number result in hang-ups when answered
I recieved 6 calls from this number in 4 days, but no messages was left, and i wonder how to make them stop calling
This number calls twice daily, causing frustration.
This number keeps calling me but no one answres
Two calls have been received on my cell from this number, with no messages left; the owner of the number is unknown
Apparently, the Democratic National committee and Obama campaign are behind this number; simply return their call and they will supposidly remove your phone number from their list within 24 hourz.
It seems prudent to reconsider phone habits, such as turning off the cell phone during sleep, as genuine callers typically leave messages, while unwanted calls often do not, thus minimizing disturbances.
Fundraising efforts appear to be the primary purpose of calls from the Obama campaign committee.
I recived a call from this number today, didnt leave a message, i tryed calling the Democratic National Committee back and they were really nice
This week, I began receiving calls from this number on my cell phone, which is somewhat ironic given my past volunteer work at the Kern County Obama campaign office back in 2008.
I recieved many calls, but there was no one on the other line
Like alot of others, including Al, Betsy, Ann, Colleen, James Banksand R, i never anwerd it, and the caller keeps on calling at least 3x a day for months, dont leave a msg, its a true pain!
No messages have been left, similar to experiences shared by Al, Betsy, and Ann
