I've received a few calls from these cretins but I never answer. About 6 months ago the FTC shut down the Breast Cancer Society in Mesa, Arizona. That "charity" made big money for its owners but gave almost nothing to breast cancer victims. Do you suppose there's a connection? After all, if you just say "breast cancer" people will throw all kinds of money at you.

My elderly mother must have answered this call, unbeknownst to me. She then got a $20 charge to her credit card on 3/3/14. Description is The Breast Cancer Society (AZ) and phone number is 888-293-0553. I tried calling the number and it's disconnected. Hard to believe my mom, who has dementia, found her credit card and gave them the number over the phone. Can't figure this out, but not going to pay it.

This is not really the Breast Cancer Society - it is a telemarketing firm that is FOR PROFIT - who uses harassment, intimidation, and profiteering on the name of the charity to generate millions of dollars for its organization - of which a fraction goes to help people. I recently contact the Breast Cancer Society - and their response is alarming to me. Their comments support that this is a conspiracy with the support of the charity. States have filed claims. Raise a fuss yourself. This is an outrage - see the email chain below - where they lie about the profiting by ACS:

Subject: RE: Breast Cancer Society Phone Calls

We do understand the negative aspects of using this company to help bring in funds to The Breast Cancer Society, but we must also take into consideration the amount of phone calls and donations that are made a day and almost all donations we receive come from the donors the call centers have accumulated. Yes, there are some disrespectful callers and we do completely discourage all behavior like that, I do apologize for any offensive behavior from them and I have removed your number from the calling list. Also we recommend to donors who do call and have concerns regarding the actual amount of their donation our organization receives to visit the website and make a donation from there because 100 percent of the money donated comes straight to The Breast Cancer Society and you can also print out a receipt from there. Once again I do apologize for any inconvenience we have caused you and we do appreciate all donations you have made to us in the past. Thank you, and have a wonderful day.

Calls but doesn't leave a message. My research suggests that this might be an org called the Breast Cancer Society. Can anyone confirm this and their legitimacy?
