House to House Collection - 19th Nov 2015 2:15pm
A friend just had a house-to-house charity collection on the doorstep.
Something that made me suspicious was that the collector explained that they don't use paper forms as people are concerned about security, so he puts it in his PDA straight away and it gets encrypted.
Tried phoning the charity's central fundraising department, no answer.
Phoned two local offices, no answer.
Phoned council switchboard, no answer.
No idea if it genuine or not, an ID/badge means nothing.
