never leaves a message, keep calling

Received this call on 7/31.  Wish for Children a charity for kids that sounds like but isn't Make a Wish Foundation.  I declined.

Hang up.

Caller ID said Oak Lawn. Did not pick up. It was another one of those annoying hangups.

Said he was with TIA, a professional charity.  Hardly a professional sounding guy.  Hope his legs fall off.

calls all the time

Called - no message.  I don't answer if caller ID doesn't identify.

A man asked for me by name. He said that his name was Jason calling from a Police Department. Very sketchy sounding man and lots of noise in the background.

Lots of noise in the background, like there was a call-a-thon or something; when I picked up he was still having a conversation with someone in the background. He asked for me by name, and when I asked who was calling, he asked again. This went through 3-4 loops of "is ___ there?" "who's calling?" I finally said I could take a message, and he said to say that "Jay" called. Never identified himself beyond that.

A man called and asked for my husband, then hung up right away after I asked who was calling

Called and hung up,very wierd and when I called back there was no answer

Called and hung up,very wierd and when I called back there was no answer

Relentless calling, caller ID showed Oak Lawn, IL.  Answered and got a recording saying it would transfer me to the next available operator and then disconnected.  Call blocked them, seems the only thing you can do since reporting it does absolutely nothing

got this Oak Lawn ID call - when I answered no one spoke back. I called back and line was still busy, I waited a few minutes and then no one picked up. I didn't wait that long for an answering machine

CALL AND DOES NOT LEAVE A MESSAGE

Got calls from this number before. I never answer unidentified calls. Got a call 8:58 8/19. This is an Oaklawn #. Did not answer again and after reading other comments glad I didn't.

Just got a call from them on a brand new #.  They asked for the owner of the old # and even after I explained to them they had the wrong party-they went right into their spiel about how they are TIA and collecting money for the will County police department and others.  He thought I hung up and started saying "Hello...hello".  Then I got to listen to him talk to all his co-workers about how I was begging to give him $35 but the head of household got "all pissed off and hung up"  Heard some other interesting discussions from these sleazebags before the call got disconnected.  NEVER GIVE MONEY TO ANYONE CALLING YOU SAYING THEY REPRESENT A POLICE ORG-THEY DON'T.

Wanted money for a police organization that helps keeps kids off the street in Will County.

Did not leave a message. Thanks for this blog- so glad i didn't answer!

Wanted money for police athletic organization that helps kids in will county

Same as the others.  The caller told me to wait for the next representative and then they hung up.  Since they're not staying on line long enough to beg for money, is the purpose of the call just harrassment?

Automated call I couldn't hear; then a hangup.

This number has just started calling me at 10 minutes to 9pm every night. Whe I call back to see who it is either it keeps ringing or busy signal.

Got another call from them on my old number.  Didn't answer and they didnt leave a message.  See my previous note about them in August.  They are liars and crooks stealing money from people by pretending to be a charity organization. Better to never answer calls from this number.

the phone rings, the voice says to stay on the line untill the next representative. I wait and the line hangs up and does a busy signal.

Very annoying, but never got a real person.

And no way to dial back.

another call with a recording to hamg on for the next available agent?

Called on Sunday evening, November 15, 2009. Guy said he was with fraternal order of police and was collecting money for juvenile something to help keep kids off the streets  . My husband told them last time they called over the summer that the FBI was on to them and their scams and not to call back again.  Guess they forgot. They really should get a job, and stop ripping people off!!!!

Callin and says he represents TIA some police charity----Yeah Right----SCUM

I just got threatened by the caller from this number when I told them to take me off their list and quit calling.  They never tell me who it is and usually when I ask, they hang up.  If you call the number back and let it ring, a recording finally answers that the company does not accept "private callers". I have reported them to the BBB.

caller ID oak lawn they hungup. called back got busy signal then now answer
