Looking at my history, you guys have called me 8 times in the past three days. I usually don't answer numbers I don't know and each time I don't answer you guys leave an empty voice mail, which is annoying.

I finally answered one of the calls yesterday and said I wasn't interested in a donation. Then today, I received three more calls at 10:55am, 11:07am, and 11:16am. I answered the last one and again expressed I wasn't interested in making a donation, quite a bit more frustrated this time.

I get it, you're trying to raise funds and that's fine, but this is absurd. Do I have to block your number?

It's not PPA, so I also wonder.

If it's not the PPA, then I apologize. However, they did say they were the Poker Player's Alliance, so if you guys aren't making donation calls, someone else is in your name.

I can PM you the number if interested (not sure if I can post it publicly.) After Googling it, a lot of people have reported it being a spam number and they claim they're from all sorts of different organizations.

Sorry for my rage earlier. Seems it was misdirected.

The only calls we have are to members in Michigan, offering to patch them through to their state senator to ask them to support that state's online poker bill. We had a similar call in Pennsylvania a few weeks back. None asked for money, hinted at money, or even had a capability to accept a donation.

Please PM me the number. We'll see if we can learn anything on our end. Thanks.
