Silence the nonstop Shelby County telemarketers!
Summary — +19019693828
Expert Opinion
Yesterday afternoon, a wave of calls from +19019693828 showed up as “Shelby County” on many caller‑ID screens. Most reporters describe silent drops or brief background noise, and the script centers on a donation request for Shelby County firefighters. This pattern matches a classic telemarketing operation that masquerades as a local charity. To protect yourself, add the number to your phone’s block list, enroll your line in the National Do Not Call Registry, and forward suspicious calls to the FTC’s complaint portal. Keep an eye on bank statements for any unauthorized contributions and remind friends that legitimate fire departments never solicit funds by cold call.

Despite our deliberate avoidance of answering their calls, they persist in trying to contact us without leaving any messages, likely to avoid liability in case of a lawsuit.
Initially, they called from a different number, (901) 969-2460, claming to be collecting donations on behalf of firefighters. However, after inquiring with a friend who is a firefighter, I found out that the contribution pass-through rate is less than 10%, which is disturbing. I asked them to stop calling, but they persisted, even arguing with me and trying to guilt trip me into supporting them.
The Shelby County Firefighters are supposedly the beneficiaries of this fundraising effort, but a significant portion of the funds raised goes to the solicitors, making it a questionable cause
