There are multiple B.S. orginizations making these calls across the nation...problem is, some folks have the money AND are gullible enough to pay them.
Very sad indeed....
If you actually answer one of those calls, you just rip into em' like it's WWIII in your house. Threaten them with every degree of malevolence and tell them to never call again.
They tried this shit with my parents... my mom was smart enough to ask for a callback number....
