Isn’t act blue getting investigated for fraud?

Asking them nicely doesn't work. Reporting to the FCC doesn't work.

If it rises to the level of harassment, sue them? Go to the press?

Tell them you'll donate $1 to the GOP every time they call you.

Link or it's another right-wing smear job, like most of this thread.

Dumping Trump is going to be a lot more effective than trying to convince people not to use that site for donations. I don't think anyone has missed that this ramped up during the DNC convention.

Sorry -- people still finding ways to donate, just not to the GOP.

Spam texts at 10:30 at night, all day long, and at 8:00 are going to cause me to vote for Trump. Its soooo gross. Try to support the cause and get spammed for the rest of your life.

I did donate $1 to the GOP (it seemed like a good idea at the time). While the $20 Burgum gift card was nice his campaign sold my phone number to...everybody. Never again.

This is your worse problem? Having to ignore spam? You are lucky.

You can’t. They run an active botnet and spam farm. Upper Echelon is a great video that showed they run a bunch of sock puppet accounts and social media bot accounts. They all spout the same thing and they’re easy to find. Musk and even Zuckerberg have been actually trying to shut them down .

There is a huge issue with them .

I am SO sick of ActBlue. I'm donating less and less because of them. Now I reply STOP to EVERYTHING that comes from them. A check in the mail to candidates we care about is all we'll do. We have contributed to critical campaigns in states where we don't live. Now EVERYBODY wants my Social Security check.

Ha! Yes. I even received a message that went, “we have texted you seven times and you still haven’t responsed..”

They don't care. It's all automated spam.

The accusation is that they allow fraudulent donations / impersonation of "donors".
