Be careful of a charity called the "DISABLED FIREFIGHTERS FUND" it's a scam.

Well, My sister was involved/dating a telemarketer entremanure, and this is how most of them operate.
The telemktr co. "donates" an agreed upon amount to the "charity" whose name they will be using for an agreed upon time limit.
Bottom line. The "Charity" already got paid. Your donation goes to the telemktr.

My co-writer came up with an innovative way of handling telemktrs.
When they call, lead them on, say things like Yes I am Interested, Tell me all about it. Then lay the phone down, and walk away. This usually wastes about 5 mins of their time. And as good capitalists we all know what time is.
