(608) 299-1479

This number has been calling us since we moved to town 4 years ago asking for "Alvina" or "Alvinia".  I've told them repeatedly that there is no such person here by that name and to quit calling.  They never listen.  Occasionally they stop for a few weeks, only to s**** up a***n.

they are now calling 3-4 times a day...even weekends!

guy asks for me by name but can't*****ounce it right. I tell him no this is "my name the correct way" and he says oh and quickly ****s up. I went on line and reverse looked up the number on USWest White pages. it came back to and unlisted number, but it gave and address on pleasant st. in Beloit, WI. No legit. bussness or fund raising group would be unlisted. Watch out I smell a scam. He probbaly thinks he can get more sympathy from a woman, might be easier to get money.  Not this one. I am putting the word out in my community to beware.

guy asks for my wife by name.  Say she is not home, may I leave a message?  He says she knows him, his name is John.  No other message.  Called the number back and got the "this number is not in service" message from the phone company.

They keep calling our house as well.  They won't say anything unless the answering ma****e picks up.

After looking into how to report this call I finally decided to report it to the FCC.  I'm****uming some others have done so.  The FCC has a simple online process for doing so.  While I realize they would want more detailed information about the caller that I cannot provide, I'm thinking that the sheer volume of complaints should carry some weight.  The FCC website is http://www.fcc.gov/cgb/cgb_offices.html#CICD.  Go to this page and scroll down to find the hot link 'File a Complaint'.  This takes you to the form page at http://esupport.fcc.gov/complaints.htm.Together we can make a difference

Someone calls asking for my mom by first name, I tell him to **** on.  When my mom takes the phone, he had already ***g up.  Is this a scam or what?

SCARY!  We have been receiving calls from this number.  A man asked for my husband by his first name.  I tell him that he is at work.  I ask him if I can take a message and the guy interrupts me quickly saying "thanks", as if in a hurry, and ****s up.  It kind of freaked me out.

They called today - this time they said they were calling for homeless veterans.

I answered the phone and there was a guy singing and when he realized I answered he ***g up very quickly - weird!

Same thing, they won't stop calling.  Now that my son loves to talk on the phone I just hand it to him.  He's 5, I bet they love that!

you all are correct. This "company" is in Wisconsin. My wife made the mistake of sending some money to a "firemen charity" a few years ago and they continue to call and ask for her. They used to block the name and number, now only the name. I do not answer any number I cannot indentify. I s****ed out being nice asking not to call back. Now, I don't even answer.

I made the mistake of giving them money a few years ago being a softee after the 9/11 thing which is what I'm sure they are preying on. I have s****ed asking for information to be sent to me in the mail from everyone now stating that I no longer give money to charities over the phone.  If they actually send it, I look them up in the Better Business Bureau. One company I looked up ended up having only 10% of the money going to the cause with 10% going to administrative costs and the rest, 80%, going to the salaries of the employees. I can't remember the official name of these guys to look them up.

they won't stop calling!

some guy calls, my husband pick's up the phonethe guy ask's for me by name, hubby says , "she's busy, can I take a message", he say's "no message" and quickly ****s upFREAK!

These scammers keep calling from Madison, Wisconsin. They say they are a firefighters charity and always ask for a woman by first name. When told not to call a***n, it seems to make them call even more. Please continue to report their number to the National Do Not Call registry and the Wisconsin Department of Consumer Protection. These ****s need to be stopped soon!!

My husband answered. He asked for me by name and acted like he knew me. When my husband said I wasn't home and asked to take a message, he ***g up.

Man called asking for my wife by name.  I told him she wasn't available and no answer, so i ***g up. Creepy.

We have been getting this number calling us too!  On another website they found that it is a supposed firefighters fund thing.  I have learned to ask everyone that calls wanting money that if this is for local organizations why are they calling from a different area code!?!?!  TRY IT-listen to them squirm out of it-funny.  I then tell them what i think and **** up!

calls asking for my wife. if i say she is not here can i help you he ****s up

Someone calls, asks for wife by name, who is this guy
