I think this is NOT a legit Ted Cruz call.
In just the last two weeks I have received solicitation calls from various phone numbers with various IDs -- CRUZ, CRUZ CHQ, TED CRUZ, ... these are probably scams. If money is sent it will NOT go to Ted Cruz ... or only a very small amount (e,g, $3 on $100) will go to Cruz. Ted Cruz is too smart to raise money with such phone calls. Marie may sound very believable but here is a much better way --
If you are going to support Cruz YOU should call (for example, a Cruz campaign headquarters) and get the correct address to which money supporting Cruz should be sent. Don't respond to a phone call TO you -- your money most likely will go to a thief ! YOU should call and get the address YOURSELF -- don't let SOMEONE call you and give you an address to which money is to be sent.
ttc6006, don't sound like a shill! -- I like Cruz too. Be careful who you send your contributed support money to. Also, read the Consumer Reports article "A Crying Shame" in the November 2015 issue.
These scams are rampant. And my phone company is not helping! I did call that company and express my concern -- as I told the company rep the lines I was being given by the callers the response was (to the lines) "lies", "lies" , "lies" .... The advice I get from friends who also are receiving numerous scamming calls is "buy a blocker."
