Yes. They just hung up

Live person claimed to be calling from the Oakland Police Benefit (or something) telling me they were going to send me some tickets to a show.  And if I don't go, they asked for me to return the tickets with a donation so that kids from the Children's Hospital could go.  Fishy!  I reported them on the National Do Not Call registry.

This guy said he was with Alameda County Sherrif's Benifit. Yeah Right!!
I would never to this type of donation by phone. Too many scams out there people. Walk it into your local red cross..

Mother in law heard the pitch about a Deputy Sheriff from Alameda County calling for a charity.  For whatever reason, she did not seem convinced and handed the phone to me.  As soon as I said "Hello", they hung up.  Very fishy.

This number called my house at 10:45 at night!  I don't ever answer unverifiable numbers so typically get several calls until they finally give up.  They've called for three days now, but the late night call is the tip-off that it is VERY fishy.  I'm glad it has been reported-- it will save me the trouble!
