Phoned did not leave a message or name/

I’m a Toronto journalist seeking more information on people making these calls/ claiming to represent this company. Can anyone who has had contact with them send me an email at emathieu @ thestar.ca
Thank you, Emily Mathieu

Have received 2 calls in the last week...no one on the other end..I called it back..and it said that the message inbox was full.  ?????

Called this evening. The girl on the other end claimed she was from "Community Drug Awareness". Thanked me for a donation I never made in 2009, went into a lengthy spiel about how drug pushers are contaminating the food we buy with crystal meth, and got very pushy trying to get me to donate to the cause. Even correctly identified me by name and address, though anyone could have harvested that information from the phone book. Sounds like a scam to me.

This number has called me 6 or 7 times, a few times I got hung up on after answering. They always want to talk to my husband when they do actually talk to us, on the one occasion they did get him they wanted thank him for being a supporter for the Community Drug Awareness in the past when he told them that he never donated to them and we don't donate to people over the phone they hung up. But that has not stopped them from calling us, I had a several conversations with them about this and when "we have never donated to you so you have the wrong people"  or " look this isn't the first time you have called us" is said they hang up on us. I hope this is the only phone number they use cause my phone has a caller block feature and I am using it.

Are you kidding me people? why dont you all take a chill pill? seriously? People volunteer there to do something for a ?good cause and all you can do is complain? i dont think anyone has the right to talk badly about this campeign especially when it has helped my family through bad times and gave us resources we didnt have. DON'T start assuming stuff about something unless you know about it. unless you've helped it out yourself and something bad has happened to you. maybe they do talk about ONE thing you don't believe in, but do you know it for a fact its not real or do you just believe everything that you see on the internet? people are too judgemental and it's not fair. do you know what is going on the other end of the phone? do you not think people make mistakes? yes maybe people hung up but did you just assume they did it for the fun of it or do you actually know what was happening? it angers me to see people doing this to a campeign that helped my family. so just stop. it's not a fraud.
