Received a call at 2:30 this afternoon.  No message.  Called ID said Lindsborg, Kansas.

Seemed to be a robocall computer voice calling on behalf of the American Veterans Support Foundation.  This organization 'appears' to be a part of the National Vietnam Veterans Foundation.  The NVVF has a terrible rating from Charity Navigator and should be avoided.

another reverse look up site indicates that this number is a debt collection service while this one says it's a charitable organization.  More confused now than when I was just guessing.  They don't answer when they call me but on ONE occasion they said "is phill there" and he wasn't and I don't know any Phill.

3-4 calls in the past week.  As noted before, Caller ID only reports "Lindborg, KS", which I'd think the city officials there would do something about.  No message ever left.  Guess they like wasting money on LD charges since those kick in - or should - as soon as my answg. machine picks up.  Not a smart way use charity money tho.  And however did they get my phone # when it's unlisted??

Called me twice and the line was dead. May be the same ones that called me every day for over a week in December from Whitewater Kansas at 316-215-6678. Someone finally answered and he knew my name. My number is unlisted so someone that I do business with must be selling phone lists. He said he was calling for the Kansas State Troopers about a veteran charity. He admitted that he was a telemarketer and not a trooper. I did find out that it was from the trooper's union and not a state operation. I contacted their union headquarters and no one there could tell me how they got my name and number. Most of these outfits using telemarketers get very little of any money collected  to the charity. I did get the satisfaction of giving that guy a cussing out that would make a sailor blush. I was surprised he stayed on the line for as long as he did.
