It's the American Lung Association.

Thanks for the info that this number is the American Lung Assn. They use other anonymous numbers also and are a genuine annoyance. Makes you want to support another lung group, especially since American Lung uses so much money on telemarketers.

Folks,

These "robot" calls are made to see what time you answer your phone.
Telemarketers get a report and start to call you shortly therafter..... and
they will call at the times you have answered your phone. Their report
Only shows working phone numbers.

Talk to them if you’re lonely but face it,,,,,, THEY JUST WANT
YOUR MONEY!

Get caller ID, get an answering machine, or change your number.

I'm gonna stop house phone service and just use a cell phone.

The American Lung Association Calls

Some professional fundraisers who apparently don’t subscribe to the government’s “do not call” registry, called me at home this morning, asking me to help out the American Lung Association. This led to over to guidestar.org to find out how much these particular do-gooders are paid for doing good.

The most recent Form 990 was for the year ended June 30, 2009 and it was a tough year for the enterprise, with revenues down about 10 percent. Fortunately, it wasn’t such a bad year for employees. Bernadette Toomey paid herself $466,000 (a raise of about $75,000 over the previous year; I thought maybe her high salary was because the job required a medical degree (a practicing pulmonologist in NYC would earn about $196,000), but a Google search reveals that Ms. Toomey has a “a Bachelor of Arts in Communications from Marymount Manhattan College and a Masters in Adult Education from American University”). Joseph Bergen clocked in at $357,000 (he left early in the year apparently, and the majority of his cash was $201,000 in severance pay). Charles D. Connor collected $303,000. Kim A. Schwartz raked off $250,000.

I think it would be nice if we could augment the do not call registries with our personal incomes. Then we could check a box “Do not call me if your employees earn more than I do.”

I have told this groups previously not to call me.   DO NOT CALL ME!

take me off of your list to call.

Received call on voice mail line. No message or id on caller id.

I answered and the caller said to Press 3 to remove remove the number from their list. I did and now we will see !!!!

I just received this call on 2-23-12 at 12:58 PM, Caller Id came up as Toll Free Call.

I did answer it and they hung up on me.

My phone is UNLISTED and is on the DO NOT CALL LIST....

Received and did not answer. Don't know why a collection agency should call me. Am on do not call list

Calls 3-4 times each day. I will not answer, ever.

We started getting calls from this number a few days ago.  My wife has serious, life threatening health issues and it is not only invasive but upsetting to have the phone ring off the hook at unwelcome times.  Some have said this is a solicitation from the American Lung Assoc.  Their email contact info is info@lung.org.  Let them know how you feel.  Tell your friends and have them write too.  If we push back hard the non profits will learn that we're sick of this kind of home invasion.  Let them go back to USPS.

Sharing information here is extremely helpful for us to learn but does nothing to dissuade these invaders of our homes.  Write to them and tell them in strong terms that you will not consider donating to them as a result of their invasive solicitation tactics.  Go for it.  Have some fun.  Write to them - info@lung.org

They hung up before I could answer.  Is this really the American Lung Association??
