202-888-9724

Received a call from this number. Immediate hangup when I tried to pick up. I have clients in the DC area, so thought it might be one of them.

Will block this number.

The callers are the American Institute For Cancer Research (AICR) one of the very lowest rated of all "charities" because of the fact that most, if not all, of the donated monies go into lining the pockets of the organizers and the paid telemarketers, and not to any cancer related causes. These disgusting scammers take funds away from, and make people suspicious of legitimate charities. Make sure to warn others of these phonies before they are tricked into donating!

Calls daily, will never answer their call. They are wasting their time calling me.

Sometimes receive 2 or 3 calls per day from this number which is identified as "anonymous".  We do not answer because we have no idea who it is.  But on one occasion, when a grandchild answered, there was no response on the line, plus they never leave a message.  That, in itself, leads us to believe it is not a legitimate call and is likely a telemarket scheme or scam.

These calls used to say AICR as a caller ID but now all it says is Private.  I was a private once over 50 years ago but now I don't know any privates so I won't answer that one either.  What I don't understand is the NSA can listen in on world-wide conversations but can't be bothered to go after these annoying scam artists nor do the phone providers care to help shut them down.  Heck we're even providing them with a phone # that certainly be traced with current technology.  

If you ran a fake charity like AICR whose initials were becoming more notorious every day, you might not want them displayed on CID either.

The AICR scammers use a variety of 202 area code numbers with both 888 and 688 prefixes in their devious attempts to con people out of their hard earned money in order to line their greedy pockets! These lowlifes can call every day until Christmas with the chances of my answering as nil. What a truly disgusting group of creatures, that take funds away from legitimate charities!

Four numbers keep calling from AICR and they are Google voice numbers.

Call came in from this number at 12:53 PM on Sunday, January 5, 2014.  No name was displayed.  I did not answer the call, and no message was left.  On January 3, I received a call from the same area code and prefix, but with the last four numbers -9537.  I didn't answer that call eitherl, and no message was left.

I got several calls from 202-888-9724 also. I called them back and there is a prompt to remove your number. It's kind of tricky, you have to push 1 (the option to hear more about their organization) then listen to the short message, it will then give you the option to be removed from their calling list. Hope this helps.

I answered and the woman would not stop takling wanting me to do something with the people on my road regarding something to do with Cancer. .  She was begging me to listen and talked over me when I told her repeatedly that I did not want to get involved with something I had no knowledge of.  I finally had to just rudely hang up after threatening to do so.  

This #202-888-9724 is calling often--searched and it was a scam out of D.C. area--sorry folks my phone doesn't except scam callers--your problem!

All 4 phone numbers registered to AICR call me constantly.  Every day.  I'm caregiver for my husband.  These people are heartless scam artists.   I pick up then hang up.  However, since I'm pretty sure these are robo calls - that doesn't stop them.  I do this so that the ringing phone will not disturb my husband.

Leaves no message.

Please stop calling us! Take us off your list, thank you.

American Institute for Cancer Research - called it back...pressed "1" fro more info (only option there was) then "3" to be removed from list. Then had to enter my phone# which was repeated back, pressed 1(or3?) to confirm. Then it said maybe upto 30 days to be removed. I HOPE SO as they have been calling incessantly!

I have blocked several of the numbers they use and now I called the last one and pressed the remove my # option. Called at 5:30 on a Sunday. So glad I bothered to register with the do not call list.

Actually they use to call with the the caller ID of ACIR. I guess people got wind of them. We just don't answer numbers we don't recognize. Screw them! ACIR is a scam group. They may give money for cancer but it's like 0.10, if that, on the dollar b
