Oh and one other thing, their phone number is an unpublished number.  What kind of charity has an unpublished number; the kind that doesn't want you to know their identity.

They called me from this number today saying that they were collecting for Vietnam Veterans. My husband is a veteran of Enduring Freedom and Iraqi Freedom, which makes it difficult for me to say "no" to someone collecting charity for veterans. They are sending me something in the mail, I will be sure to send it back to them and inform them that I will be donating to the VA or VFW directly in the future. I think that they probably knew my husband is a vet which is why they used this particular scam on us.

Said they were from the Kids Wish List, and thank you for your previous support. I said I had never given to them, remove me from their list, and hung up.

Unidentified

I spoke with a representative today at home.  They gave me the same charity name, and when I asked that they send information to me so that my wife and I could consider it, they said they only would if I said I would make a minimum donation of $20.00.

The initial caller sent me to a "verifier" who when I said that I would not guarantee the money (as I do not give other the phone to questionable charities), he hung up on me.

Guess this one is a really doozy...
