In November I was approached by a young lady in the street collecting for the Shelter charity, which I believe is a good cause and I thought I would donate. They way they wanted me to donate is via a simple SMS text message which would cost me the amount that I wanted to donate. I thought this was a good idea because it is not always you have the correct amount of cash that you wish to donate. Everything was fine until I started getting calls from 02076197597, I did not answer these calls because generally I don't answer calls who I don't know who it is, it us to mainly be annoying recruitment companies with jobs that had nothing related to what I do. After doing some research into this number it appears to be related to a number of charities. I might be incorrect, but I think that Shelter must have taken my number and past it onto a charity collecting company. Because of this my advice is never give your number out to charities and if you are going to give stick with cash or card.
