Am I being unfair?

i used to feel comfortable about giving money to the tin-rattlers, and purchasing raffle-tickets, having worked for an org that had a button day I knew how the money was processed (and it was kosher). - and I assumed that that it was the same accountability re raffle tickets.
But I will now think twice about raffle tickets. -not so much re the money but with regards to what they do with my information after receiving a begging phone-call on my mobile. (I only ever use my mobile number in situations that I think are 'secure')
I DID NOT authorise my information to be used in this way, and I am yet to see anything on a raffle ticket that implies permission. Some of you will probably say that I am naive, and that this is common practice...but I have never encountered this before.
