Call cam to Kansas from Cleveland, OH at 09:50-J on 5-1-2014. Call not answered and no message left. Caller ID said "Breast Cancer S." Other posters advise that the Breast Cancer Society cannot be found on charitynavigator.org.

These people have called twice. Both times they asked for my father. When I tell the person that he has passed away, they ask me for money. I can not believe the insensitivity of these people.

I looked up the the number 316 251 9472 .  The whole page was in Korean except this website.   hackers !!!!

Phone rang once.   It was not answered and caller did not leave a recorded message.

I received a call from a very rude woman this afternoon from 316-251-9742 asking for a donation.  I would be interested in what law enforcement agency should be contacted or perhaps the Better Business Bureau?  Anyone had any luck getting these people stopped?

They called me again. I can't find any financial information about The Breast Cancer Society. Its not even listed by charitynavigator.org . So home much of funds raised does AC Services keep? What percent of funds raised by the BC Society get spend on beneficiaries? STAY AWAY FROM THIS ONE.

I received a call from these ppl also...politely asked them to not call again...10 min later...got another call!!I asked them to not call again and hung up..we shall see,if it works..

Got the call while I was out --saw it on my caller ID  Thank You for all your posts it saved me a lot of time -- I AM JUST GOING TO BLOCK THE NUMBER.

On my iPhone this number showed up as a reminder in the reminder app. I know that I did not put this reminder in my phone. So here I am looking at research on where the number is coming from and it leads me to believe that maybe we should do something about this.

I spoke to the representative of the Breast Cancer Society. I asked the percentage of the donated funds that go to women, research, etc.  She graciously told me that 85% of the proceeds go towards administrative costs and fundraising.  A good fact to know before donating...

...I got the call too...I think it is a scam, but not all charity calls are a scam...I think it was automated this time...I don't get totally angry when charities call...they do what they do..maybe some of the money collected is for talking about early detection nowadays...some things do change over time...sorry you are still so angry...

This caller has called a lot.  Am on DNC list.   Shows a Kansas AC and gives the "appearance" of a charity.  However, based on their previous calls to our previous #, am doubtful it's a legitimate charity since  the ACS does not appear to know who they are.

Stop calling! Check your do not call registry often!!

Received a call this morning about 10 am.  I did not pick up, but my caller I.D. gave this number 316-251-9472 and the name Breast Cancer S.  Whoever was on the other end of this phone call should thank their lucky stars that I did not pick up, because they would have received an ear full from me.  I had breast cancer 13 years ago and there is NOTHING some one on the phone can tell me what I don't already know.  If they want to help people with cancer, maybe the phone calls should be to inform people about early detection and survival, not begging people for money.

Called me..Phone says only Ks number. Lady says AC Services raising money for breast cancer. I said I'm on disability & have to borrow from my daughter each month to get by.  She kept talking over me saying it's only a little bit of money & could she send me a packet-again I said no-And also my Mom is fighting breast cancer--she broke in again trying to tell me of "these women's" pain each day.  Told her no abt 7 times-she finally thanked me & hung up. I am on the do not call list.

                                    PLEASE  STOP CALLING US THIS THE 2 TIME YOU YOU ARE NOT GET MONEY FROM US AT ALL ............. THANKS

                          STOP CALLING US WE ARE ON THE DO NOT CALL LIST NOW AND WE ON JUNK MAIL     LIST THANKS

Just got same  call.I tried to talk to her but she sounded like a recording and would Not let me talk.I could use a free mammogram too but they just want your money.Sorry if I had money I could get the tests I need dont ya think.I hate these calls when I have big medical problems myself and not a soul can help me.

This is a scam- i told them i don't give money to strangers i have talked to for 15 seconds - I have alerted the kansas attorney general !

I believe that is illegal now so it has to be a scam

I agree and you never know if it is legit or not

In checking out the Breast Cancer Society, it appears that 85% of the funds raised go to fundraising and only 15% to breast cancer patients.  This is the reverse of what would expect.

Too many of this type of calls any more from all over the USA. Why can't this be stopped......

this lady named amanda asked me if i wanted to donate to breast cancer. she wanted me to pay by check or credit card I declined. I said send me a packet. this lady calls every day and when my wife answer the phone she refuses to talk to her. I am on the no call list. thank you

AC Services raising money for the Breast Cancer Society

google "ac services breast cancer society"

Answered a call from this outfit last night.  She asked whether if I were sent info about their organization, would I make a donation.  I said, "you can mail me your info, but I can't promise . . ." and right there she interrupted and shouted, "These women are fighting for their LIVES!"  I hung up.  She had no idea what I was going to say next before she rudely interrupted that way.  Even if this is a legitimate agency, I strongly doubt its beneficiaries would approve of their collection methods.

Called at 10 AM on 5/17/2013  never left a message, had something about Breast Cancer on caller ID..  There are so many places to give to that particular charity they do not need to call and bother me.  I am a survivor of colon cancer but not once has anyone had a month about colon cancer or given me any help when I had it so I refuse to be drawn into this hype.

We receive a call daily since mid-March, sometimes more than once a day, from this number.  They have called today again.  The last time I attempted to answer it there was no one on the other end.  We haven't been able to find out why they are calling but it appears from others that is a solicitation of some sort.  Very annoying.  Would like to block this caller!
