      Hi REMOVED,

      I'm sorry to hear this was your experience. While we work hard to ensure that all of our information is accurate, sometimes addresses are older or incorrectly input in our system by our members. I've let our direct mail team know so we can make sure we make the appropriate changes. Please note it can take up to 8 weeks for this to occur since we approve our direct mail about two to three months ahead of sending with our vendor.

      Thank you for your REMOVEDand patience in the face of human error.

      Best,
      REMOVED@ MoveOn

      Sometime June of this year my email was Enrolled in Move on's email list asking for donations. I am a registered Republican and have never used MoveOn, ActBlue, or any other Democratic party run donation service, nor have I donated to ANY PAC in my life. When I click the link in the emails they send, it brings me to their website where is says "Welcome Back". The account already includes my email address. I believe they are buying stolen information and registering emails on their platform, thus adding it to mass email and donations lists. This is fraud and spam.

      Hi, Jack.

      Thank you for reaching out and sharing your concerns.

      I want to acknowledge that, on occasion, someone may sign up another person for our email list as a prank. This is not something we encourage or take lightly. We take these matters seriously and are always here to help address any issues. I've removed this email from our list. Please allow a few business days for this to take effect as some of our emails are pre-scheduled,

      Regarding your question about the donation link: when you click to donate, you are directed to ActBlue, which is a separate, secure payment processor that handles donations for many progressive organizations, including REMOVED. If you see a Welcome Back message on REMOVEDsite, it may indicate that you already have an account with them under your name or email address. Please note that REMOVEDdoes not have access to REMOVEDas they operate independently from us. If you have any questions or concerns about your ActBlue account, I recommend reaching out directly to REMOVEDsupport team at REMOVED.

      To address another important point: MoveOn deeply respects the privacy of everyone on our email list, and we work hard to protect your personal information. We do not exchange or sell your information for monetary consideration.

      If youd like, Id be happy to assist with any other questions you may have.

      Thank you for your time and for bringing this to our attention.

      REMOVEDsent me an email asking for a donation for their billboard campaign. The first email they sent about this, I wrote back to them that I'd need to see photographs of the billboards before I'd decide to donate. They did not send any photographs. But they sent another donation "request" and I clicked the link to see where it took me and it AUTOMATICALLY TOOK $75 DONATION FROM MY ACCOUNT. I called MoveOn on the phone and they promised to refund this donation within 1-2 business days, which is really slow, and I don't know if I believe it.

      Hi REMOVED,

      Thank you for taking the time to reach out.

      Due to the high volume of emails and calls we receive, we do our best to respond in a timely fashion and can only gaurantee a response within 1-2 business days.

      I took a look at your profile and do not see a $75 charge connected to this email. To best help you, will you please email us at REMOVEDI want to ask some follow up questions that require private information, including credit card information, that you may not want posted on the BBB website.

      Thanks for all you do,

      I received numerous daily text messages, requesting donations for Democratic campaigns, and each comes from a different number, so I cannot block them. I never signed up for this and do not wish to be harassed in this manner any further. I have replied, stop to each one of these texts, but every day they come from different numbers.

      Hi REMOVED,

      I'm sorry to hear this was your experience!

      I took a look at your MoveOn member profile and see that youre subscribed to our email list. However, we dont have a phone number attached to this email, nor do we have you subscribed to SMS messages.
      Is there another email that might be associated with your account? Also, do the texts you mentioned include a sign-off from MoveOn? If not, they may be coming from other organizations or campaigns that we are not affiliated with.

      Let me know how youd like to proceed!

      Best,
      REMOVED

      Received texts from REMOVEDwhich is short code message from REMOVEDI'm unclear as to how they got my phone number to send messages but I do not agree with their beliefs or with whom they support politically. I do not consent to my name being used to support any organization, business, corporation, person or entity who actively supports and promotes anyone who shows signs of perversion and inappropriate behaviors and/or speech towards young underage children and minors. I also do not consent to my name being used to support a mentally incompetent presidential candidate who is incapable of filling their duties, making any important and/or legal decisions regarding not only themselves, but the general public and citizens of REMOVEDas well. I am very concerned that this organization is sending these text messages to people who never subscribed to their texts and using said people's names and calling them subscribers which implies that these individuals support what this organization stands for politically. I hope this is Investigated and they will no longer be able to use people's names as though they are subscribers and supporters of this disastrous campaign. Thank you REMOVED
