Is Obama doing fundraising phone calls?
I just got a phone call. Sounded very offical and on the up and up. And seemed to know that I was a contributor. They also said thatthe call was being recorded for quality purposes. Which likely means it was a contractor.


But two things:

I maxed out my contributions last week and I did not think that they were raining monet this way.


I tolf the guy to seen me a donor card.


Scam or legit?

3. They're doing fundraising calls through paid telemarketers.
But I don't know how you would confirm that they're from the campaign although it sounds like it was legit. I tell them I donate online.

5. I rarely answer my phone
I do notice a large number of calls where no one leaves a message. I know they have my number since I've donated on the website and left my number.

They are doing what they have to do.
