This number called me this morning and I did not answer. I have received a call in the past from this number where I was pressured to donate and made to feel guilty about not donating. I asked to be placed on their do not call list which clearly did not happen.

It's basically a scam. Most of the money does not go to Charity at all. And some of it winds up lining the pockets of it's founder. Here's an article detailing the whole scam this guy is running from the Toronto Star. Makes me sick that they try to make you feel guilty about not helping kids when they have no intention of using your money to do that anyway.

Got 17 calls from this number - called it back and it's the Children's Leukemian Foundation.

I got a call this morning -- once I answered the person said one, unintelligible, word and then hung up.

I received a call today, and the rude insistant man on the line said he was raising funds for Lukemia research.  After listening to his speal, and telling him I don't give information on the phone, but said if he mailed it to me I'd look, he tried to tell me I he wasn't getting through to me.

Anyway, with his attitude, and the google history of this number, I believe that it is a scam number being used.  I would advise not to give money to this phone number.
