If they want some money then just say so!!!! not calling and hang up!!!

No they dont actually. Not in QLD. which is where this phone call is from.
By the way you spelt Firey wrong

If a business cannot have a registered name, address whatever picked up when number is checked. to me is a scammer. I don't care what the person does they need top have a legit. Name...Phone Number...Address... easily found on Google & White Pages. I have been scammed for $3500 on a web site stating they were in Sydney but had a false virtual office only. Not good enough in todays "computer world".

They get snotty if you tell them that your not interested. If i was going to donate to a charity i defineatly would not do it over the phone i would do it in person or by mail to registered mailing address do not respond to these even if they are collecting for the so called rural fire brigade they would be keep 80 to 90% of the money as so called adminstration fees so if you feel so strongly about donating do it personally and not through these blood suckers

Rurals are now tottaly funded by gov..they probably want it for bbq etc

This number (07) 5480 1359 rang my home private number. yet we are listed as do not contact on the home canvassing list. they are obviously scammers.

Thanks for that, the same number was left on my answering service

How come I have an unlisted number but these people still ring and harass me ????

This number constantly rings again and again. I wish they would just give up !!!! Dont call........... dont ring.........go to hell (07) 5480 1369 ! Give up now !!!!!!!!!!!!!!

This number rang my FAX number over some 5 times in last hour....frustrating - thanks goodness I checked here to see who it was - they rang me on the landline yesterday grrrrr and it was the Rural Fire Brigade wanting me to buy raffle tickets - now that could be a scam to get my credit card details 0 glad a said no....

The person who rang on this number 54801369 today asked my mother to put CASH in an envelope and send it. That does not sound like a legitimate charity or fundraiser to me. I wish she got their address!!

That is completely untrue. You have no idea what you are talking about.

Why doesn't somebody do something about these harrassing calls from telemarketers and "fundraisers". Enough.

If you paid any attention to the information provided you would know that charities are not included in the "Do Not Call Register"

Number 2 of the FAQ section is as below

2. Will registering my number stop all telemarketing calls and marketing faxes?

No, registration won't stop all calls and faxes. Some public interest organisations (e.g. registered charities, political parties and educational institutions) can still call numbers listed on the register. This ensures these organisations can continue to provide valuable services to the community.

If you have an existing relationship with a business, it can still contact you, but you can advise them you do not wish to receive telemarketing calls or marketing faxes from them in the future.

I help my local services out and give money and time to them and worked as volunteer 40 years every telly marketer I get I ask do you do what you are doing for free or are you being paid for it by the time I Lyell them what I do they mostly hang up , but if they don't I say you could be any one . I never never never give out my card details to some one who rand me , and after having my criedt card hacked by over seas people buy online shoes I'm even more car full than be fpre I'm am never going to give out my details and you should not too cheers

Rang 2 consecutive days. Didn't leave a message thankfully.

..

why do they ring up and then hang up without talking? This is a standard process of a telemarker, whether they are a charity or not. And don't be fooled, those telemarketers that work for charities are usually on a $100,000 + income, depending on how much they bring in! They aren't working for free. Ask them how much they earn.

they rang me today and hanged up
