[QUOTE="bobtomay, post: 1675551, member: 24160"] Very easy solution: [B]Never[/B] buy, donate, nor give out any private info (especially your CC info) to anyone you don't know (no matter how much private info they seem to already have) to an unsolicited phone call. If you do, you've been scammed. Even donations to worthy charities (there are not many of these that make blind phone calls), the money you give - typically 10% actually goes to the charity. The other 90% goes to the company that's been hired to solicit funds. You want to donate to a charity - do it direct - not via a sales call. [/QUOTE]
