Caller ID shown as "Michigan call".  Based on what I'm reading, it's more than likely a spoofed number.
Would be nice if a traceroute can be done with a phone number as easily as an IP.

Caller ID said "Michigan call".  The phone number is supposedly from Troy in Oakland County. My humble opinion, however, is that it is more likely a spoofed number.  Didn't answer, and no message was left.  Oh well.  Guess it wasn't that important.

Said it was for childhood leukemia.  Told them we do all donations via mail after investigating the solicitor.  End of conversation.  Looks like this will be a busy day reporting to the DNC site.  Try to get names and locations and tell them they will be subpoenaed for the violation.  It's fun to see what their response will be.

DO NOT GIVE THEM A SINGLE PENNY!  High likelihood that this call originated by a firm called Good Charity Inc. / Insight Teleservices, Inc. / Brian J. Maiorana. A contract between Good Charity and Insight allows Insight to retain 85 percent of the funds it raises for the charity. The names under which Good Charity may be soliciting funds include: Terminally Ill Children?s Fund United States Paralyzed Veterans Fund Chldren?s Leukemia of America Fund National Breast Cancer Awareness Fund Disabled Veteran Wheelchair Games Michigan Disabled and Paralyzed Veterans Fund Disaster Relief and Aid Fund Disabled and Paralyzed Veterans Fund America?s Missing Children Fund The Autistic Society Fund.

so it's "the leukemia foundation for children".  
I'm on the NO CALL list.  so I said 'please take me off your call list' and the reply?

"I understand, so you don't want to help the kids"

so I replied, right I don't want to help the kids.

damn straight.  Not with that attitude.

Live fundraising solicitation call w/blocked Caller ID (xxx) yyy-zzzz recorded 07 April 2014 ("Laura of Innovative Teleservices" professional fundraiser for Childhood Leukemia Foundation)
Caller ID: completely blank

Note: called December 29 & 31, 2013 also from a totally blocked Caller ID

Live fundraising call from "Innovative Teleservices on behalf of Childhood Leukemia Foundation" using completely blocked phone numbers.

I never contribute to "professional fundraisers" because they rarely give more than 10% of collections to the charity and I wouldn't support this charity because of their conscious reliance on such an inefficient collection method.

Following is a transcript of this fundraising solicitation call:

[me] Hello?
[they] Hi, John?

[me] Who?
[they] Well, my information might be wrong. My name is Laura and I'm calling you today on behalf of the Childhood Leukemia Foundation in Brick, New Jersey. This year the Foundation is delivering gift baskets to sick children that are in cancer treament centers and these baskets have some really great things like toys and games, there's pajamas and even a $75 gift card inside. What we're trying to do is help lift their spirits as they go through their cancer treetment. I'm with Innovative a professional fundraiser and we have not mailed out anything to you yet. We want to make sure we can count on your support for a tax deductible donation. Most are helping with our Gold sponsor at $35 and Silver sponsor at $25. Can the children count on you for one of those?

[me] Uh, this is for children with leukemia you say?
[they] Yep, yep and we're, we're raising money for the gift baskets that I mentioned and also in addition to that the Foundation provides human hair wigs for the children who lose their hair during chemotherapy treatments.  

[me] Uh, yes, I think I can contribute to that.
[they] Ok, would you like to do the Gold for $35? Or the Silver for $25?

[me] Uh, I'll, I'll go the Gold.
[they] I'm sorry, didn't hear you?  

[me] Gold.
[they] The Gold for 35? Well that's very generous, now can I get your first name?

[me] My first name is Jason.
[they] And Jason your last name?
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
[ I provide her a fake name and address courtesy of FakeNameGenerator.com ]
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

[they] Excellent. Well first I want to thank you very much for your very generous pledge of $35, next I'm going to transfer you to our Records department. What they do is confirm the pledge. They're also gonna go over your address one more time, make sure I didn't do anything wrong and they're the ones who get the information together and mail it out to you and they uh they'll let you know what to look for in the mail, ok?

[me] Aw right.
[they] Please stay on the line sir, they'll pick right up.

[me] Awright.  [you can hear me taking a deep breath]
[Records dept] Thank you for holding, are you comfortable with the 35?

[me] Yes I am.
[Records dept] (she verifies my address, asks if there's any "apartment or post office"?)  Ok, um, you'll get it [pledge card] in about three days that's just when we ask you to send it back, ok?

[me] O h   k a y .
[Records dept] All right, thank you so much, you have a nice evening.

[me] Ok, thank you, good night.

This number calls all hours of the day and night.  We have caller ID,  so I am keeping a log of how many times they continue to call.  We are on the do not call list which is worthless,  its disgusting,  to have to put up with this harassment.  No one talks on the other end of the line, and if by chance they do say something,  the person or persons, don't even speak English!!   I work for a law firm, and we are looking into these harassing numbers very carefully and monitoring who they are.

In reading the comments, it seems like the number has gone from a political poll to a scammy-sounding Leukemia Charity, all with the same "QVD" caller ID.  Interesting.  Not interesting enough, however, to make me EVER answer their calls!  (Latest was at 9:51 am 11-19-13).
