This is the number used by fundraisers for the Autism Spectrum Disorder Foundation (ASDF), http://www.autismspectrumdisorderfoundation.org . I was able to call them back, press 1 for "more information", and then there's an option to have your # removed from their lists. There's also a form on their website you might try to contact them.

My phone allows me to place up to 50 numbers on a BLOCK list. The phone rings once, then the caller gets a reorder tone. This number, I'm proud to say, was added about 5 minutes ago. Only problem is, the BLOCK list is getting full.

After getting 2 calls in four hours from these scumbags with out picking up on the calls, I looked them up here. They need to be taken to court!! Only 5 or 6% of their total fund raising goes to help autism?? Come on folks, if this isn't a criminal acxtivity, I don't know what is!!!

Fraud Watchdog Sounds Autism Fundraising Scam Alert
"A complete record of ASDF?s filings with the North Carolina Charitable Solicitation Licensing Section, including its current contracts with Precision Performance Marketing and
Infocision, which provides call center services, can be found on the North Carolina Secretary of State?s website. The final accounting for ASDF?s 2009-2010 fundraising
campaign shows that out of $1,165,728.40 raised from donors in the United States, only $60,000.00...that is, 5.15%...made its way to ASDF, and if the organization?s own tax
filings are to be believed, barely half of that amount made it beyond ASDF?s coffers to benefit the autistic people donors thought they were helping in the first place."

This number called on Sunday morning (!!) and again later in the day. They are persistent. You'd think after this many unanswered calls, they'd figure out that I'm not picking up the phone. Or perhaps they are insane: performing the same act interminably and expecting a different result.

I'm also on the no call list. This number calls all the time.

Called & I hung up when they said Autism
| Brookdalepark 2012-03-15 22:11:17 Unknown |
Called. No message. Caller ID said "Unavailable." If they're unavailable, then so am I. Last night our phone rang six times. Five were telemarketers. So far today the phone has rung three times, all telemarketers, and the evening rush is yet to come. Anyone else feel that the Do No Call registry allows too many exceptions?

Once again I was called by 800 Service but they left no message.
