Phone call from last week:
Cast of characters:
Me
SND (sucky non-donor)
Me: Thank you for calling the Make A Wish Foundation. How may I help you?
SND: YOU PEOPLE ARE A BUNCH OF REAL SHITS, YOU KNOW THAT? HOW DARE YOU TREAT PEOPLE LIKE THIS??!!!
Me: What seems to be the problem, Sir?
SND: My wife got a call from you people yesterday asking for money and when she said she could not give at this time they called her cheap
and told her that karma would get her and thanks for nothing and hung up! How can you do that to people?!!!
Me: I am very sorry that your wife was treated like that but the Make A Wish Foundation NEVER calls people for donations. Nor do we EVER e-mail
donation requests. Whoever called you was a scammer trying to get your credit card info and/or "donation" money to steal from you and they are in no way
associated with us.
SND: Then why would they say they were from Make A Wish?
Me: (thinking-"Well what are the odds of someone trying to steal your money and ID also LYING to you?!) That is how they get people to give them money and the
information they want. We have been trying to stop it but there are a lot of scammers out there using our name because it is so widely known.
SND: Well I find that hard to believe that they could get away with that but thank you for explaining it to me. I MAY call back to donate some other time.
Me: Well thank you for calling and have a great day. Bye. *click*
Do people really think we could get away with something like that and still be around 20+ years?
