WinRED is a PAC for the Republican party. At some point my husband, an Alzheimer patient, made contributions to various political candidates. At some point WinRED began hitting the credit card daily for multiple changes. When it was discovered the credit card account was closed. I estimate about $15,000 was lost. Now they are hitting another credit card with the latest charges totaling $6283.70 for the period of Jan. 9, 2025 to Feb. 5, 2025. I don't even know how much was charged prior to this last billing period.

Two men approached me at the doors of the Walgreens stating they were collecting donations on behalf of a charity for one of the men's young son who was fatally shot nearby. They said they did not take Venmo or cash donations because their partner charities were donation-matching and that the donations were taxable. They entered an amount of $10 on a tap-to-pay device. When I handed the man with my device my card, the other man asked me to fill out information on a clipboard (presumably while the other man changed the amount from $10 to $3000). The men got into a tan SUV and drove away. A charge then appeared on my credit card statement for $3000 from "PP*Dillion Wit Da Fam".

This profile on TikTok under the name Evan Kate followed me and said would give me 2.5 million dollars for just getting a gift card. Sounded like a hoax and I never bought a gift card. When I asked to see a picture she said basically avoided it. I blocked her from my account. She contacted me through a messaging app called Zangi and her number she uses that is specific to the app is: 10-9746-7242. Everyone has a number on Zangi like that and in the format.

2 men approached me while I was walking alone in Lincoln Park during the day. They shared that their little brother recently died because of gun violence and I could please donate to their cause. I told them I would donate via Zelle $10. They made me tap my phone to pay instead of use Zelle. I saw the amount say $10 like I asked and the next day my credit card was charged $2700 dollars.

So these people put on a comedy show called (local city) Funny-Fest and they tour, sell tickets for a comedy show with a great cause, don't pay the performers, because the use the excuse all profits are being donated to a nonprofit called Lessonz Learned. But if you try looking for that nonprofit you won't find it because it doesn't exist. They lie to the general public to sell tickets and they lie to the performers they "hire" as well. I don't think that's right and they should be on your radar for fraud.

Got a call from National Coalition for Police &Troopers ((or so they said). I used to donate to them via mail, but the person I talked to REALLY wanted to do it via credit card. I would not give that info over phone, but said mail me an envelope instead and I will send you a check. They did send it and I mailed a check for $35.00. Yesterday the envelope was returned to me as undeliverable. The postal note said....attemted-not known, unable to forward.

United Police Fund with a PO Box in Phoenix, AZ repeatedly calls my 98 year old mother, claiming that she has made previous donations/OR that she previously pledged money to them. They make her feel guilty, keep her on the phone endlessly and repeatedly call her back even when she hangs up on them. Of course, they call from different numbers so she is not able to know who is calling. They finally got money out of her. Now I have to change her credit card AGAIN. These guys are [censored].

BBB Note: Before donating money to any Charitable Organization, please check the charity out with either your local BBB, your State Office for Charitable Solicitation, or your State Office of Consumer Affairs.

According to the Virginia State Office of Charitable Solicitation, there is no listing for this organization.

I was approached by a door to door sales person who sold me a magazine subscription that will go to “charity”. The whole sale took place relatively quickly, and I did not ask for details when I should have. I did not receive a receipt. It did not seem like a legitimate charity, in hindsight.

About 5 years ago or more, I made a donation to the National Police Support Fund.

Recently, they started a marathon campaign of calling my cell phone continuously, maybe 10 times a day or more. The same person would be on the line and at first I tried to be nice telling him I was no longer interested and to stop calling me. I asked to be taken off the list. But the endless calling continued.

I tried blocking and reporting as spam their numbers, but every time they called, it would be a different number. I would literally spend all day blocking their numbers. It became such a hassle that I was literally scared to answer my phone and I miseed many important calls.

I don't know how to get them to stop calling me. Anyone who calls that often cannot possibly be legit in my opinion. I don't believe any real police charity would ever do such a thing.

This is just a warning t anyone that if you ever receive such a call, hang up and block immediately.

Young man doing door to door sales of magazine subscriptions or subscriptions you can donate to charitable groups. Sales pitch on improving himself, training him to be an entrepreneur, and making money via commissions to help him start his career. Lots of small talk, eye contact, and questions to build a connection. When not interested in magazine subscription pivots to subscriptions to be donated to charity. Was in a hurry to conclude the interaction and made payment via Venmo. No receipt given or contact details collected. Later, tried looking up organization “Making Differences Daily” and it could not be found.

Received a call from someone from Forgotten Harvest around 6:30 pm. Wanted me to use my credit card for $12.00 a month for donation. Forgotten Harvest always asks for donations online or through the mail. Never have been asked over phone for donation. I didn't give any money nor any of my personal information but wanted to report it to protect anyone else. Tried to call number back and got busy signal.
