I’m curious if it is a scam like other people are saying. Had a similar experience maybe a year ago with a fire department looking for donations. Except I don’t live in that town and the person that they were asking for when I picked up wasn’t me. I explained that they had the wrong number and wished them luck, but then kept getting spammed for like a month by them.

Yeah, totally possible it's a scam, or maybe it is some charity thing affiliated with them, either way its super annoying.

I worked for a company that did this for a short while til I caught wind of a few foul practices. They operate a small office of a few con artists who call and receive a percentage. Totally legal, but their tactics and outright lying to the people that they call is abhorrent.
