Just got a call from 256-280-2174 and when I answered, I could hear someone on the other end.  I said hello several times, no reply.

Got a call from this number today, 6 Nov 2013 aith a guy claiming to be from the N. Alabama Fire department. He tried to start general conversation talking about how nice the weather is. Since I am a member of the Volunteer Rescue Squad and Fire Department in my home town, I started to cut him short by teling him that it was already cold and dark where I am located. I have heard aboutr these type of calls, so when I told him that I am currently in Germany with the military, he cut the conversation short and thanked me for serving our country, then he hung up! I am sure he was trying to solicit donations.

I get these calls sometimes but not often since I told them I was one of the "poor" and I didn't lie.

Also called me and hung up when I announced my business name.  They are calling my business number.  I also received calls with the exact same "MO" from 256-280-2174.

Don?t Trust Your Caller ID

Do not trust your caller ID. And if you pick up the phone and someone asks for your personal information, hang up. That?s generally good advice anyway, what with all the reports we hear about ID theft and other types of fraud, but regulators in many states are hearing about a rise in what?s often referred to as ?caller ID spoofing? or ?call laundering.? The Federal Trade Commission prohibits telemarketers from hiding their identities when calling, but they don?t always do what their supposed to. The same applies to debt collectors, whose calls often show up in caller ID?s as random numbers, a series of zeroes, a number that may appear to be local, or even organizations such as ?Humane Soc.? Unfortunately, technology that is designed to help consumers, can also be used to foil unsuspecting ones.
Best policy is don't answer calls you don't recognize or return calls that don't leave messages. Call blocking is usually available on most phone services, just ask your provider. Here's a little more info on caller spoofing. http://www.dailytech.com/Caller+ID+Spoofing+N ... rticle18138.htm

The Aaron Tippin concert was last week and the calls just keep coming.  I'm getting about one per day for weeks now.  The rule on my phone is, if you don't show your NAME on my caller ID, I don't answer.  If you don't leave a message, I NEVER answer, NEVER respond, NEVER donate.  Whoever in the Huntsville Fire Fighters Assn is driving this thing should wake up and realize that it's doing harm to their reputation in the community.  Not a good public face for people who provide such a vital service.  Because of this, it's extremely unlikely that I will ever donate to HFFA in the future.

I had a call just now at 8:12pm and the guy said he was with Fireco... they do programs for the kids for fire safety.  Wanted a donation and they would send me tickets to see Aaron Tippin who's doing a concert for them.  When I said no thank you, he continued on & said that for low income folks, just a one time donation of $15. would help a lot.  (Who said I was low income, high income or any income?) LOL!  I told him I donated through one of the organizations I belong to.  I didn't hang up as I wanted to get the whole story.  Sorry Dude... charity begins at home!  Thanks but MY money stays in MY pocket with phone calls like this!  The number on my caller I.D. was 280-2174 and it was 256 area code.  I didn't get the guys name but I don't care what his name was. If he calls here again... he'll be reported to someone other than this thing.

This # 256-280-2172 continues to call our home. When we tried calling back, rings and goes into voicemail. Obviously, after researching the number, I see several people have had the same experiences.

Wells that's all true.  Basically what you are quoting is saying that it is not mandatory for the organization to enroll or provide information with the BBB of North Alabama, and that any monetary donations given to the group are not tax deductible.  The BBB website is not saying that they cannot receive gifts contributions, it is stating that those monies are not applicable for deduction via federal income tax.  If this organization is offering you anything, item or service,  in return for your donation you can not claim it on your federal income tax.

I have received more than one call from this number, last night there was a "partial" message to the effect that it was "Urgent that I contact them relative to my account."  Wasn't enough information to determine which, if any financial institution was calling, nor what was the problem.  I'm thinking it is one of perhaps 3 things.  (1) it's one of those systems that calls regularly to see if you answer the phone at a certain time, then sells that information to other solicitors, or (2) a scam, trying to get account/password information, or (3) some credit card company offering a rate, supposedly better than your current rate.

Given no one ever answers a callback, I'm leaning towards reason 1 and they play some message just to disguise the real purpose of the call.

Taken from the North AL BBB website about your "charity":

>Despite written Better Business Bureau requests in the past year, this organization either has not provided current information or has declined to be evaluated in relation to BBB's charity standards. While participation in BBB's charity review efforts is voluntary, BBB believes that this lack of cooperation may demonstrate a lack of commitment to transparency. Without the requested information, BBB cannot verify if the charity adheres to BBB charity standards."

>This organization is tax-exempt as a fraternal organization operating under a lodge-type system under section 501(c)(8) of the Internal Revenue Code. It is not eligible to receive contributions deductible as charitable donations for federal income tax purposes.

Just got a call from this number soliciting donations for the local fire dept. in Huntsville. Ironic I would be getting calls from a number from the same town as the "thing" who destroyed my family. Don't think this is affiliated with the fire dept.
