The best way to mess with these people is tell them you'll donate so have them send you a bill then send it back with no money and write on the bill to take you off their list. They get no money and it cost them postage.
6:09pm Caller hollers in a loud and obnoxious voice... 'Is this the <states my last name> residence? I ask: 'Who's Calling?' Again in a loud and obnoxious voice... 'Is this the <states my last name> residence? In a louder voice, I mimmic him and holler... whoooooooose calling? With an echoey background and talking to someone in the same room, the caller hangs up the phone. No immediate callback and hope it stays that way.. Loaded the number in my phone Caller ID as Police Fund and will not answer next time
We have received SEVERAL calls (too many to count!!) from these "people"... they badger, harass, & try to strongarm money out of people. The last call was 7-23-09 & I just filed a complaint at donotcall.gov , which I would have done sooner had I know I could have filed a complaint. I remember a coworker being harassed by this group several years ago.. it was SOOO bad every day that she ended up changing her phone #!!
Rec'd phone call this evening. No response after I said hello twice.
Finally he comes on the line, ask I was after he stated where he was from.
I responded not too good since I lost my job and he still has his.
I hung up and got into a arguement with my husband because my rudeness,
How do you like those apples?
Called 3X in last 2 weeks. Always hangs up prior to answer service picks up. Another scam artist fishing for victims. Any reputable charity will leave a message. When will they learn, any smart person will not donate to a phone caller, unless they are asking to get ripped off. Sorry, legitimate charities, it is the sign of the times. I only donate in person or charities I research. NEVER by phone or credit card.
This is a SCAM outfit. It has nothing to do with any police department or police protection fund.
Tell family members and friends that if they want to donate money to a police department or a police union, then contact that organization directly to find out how to make donations.
These scumbag callers deserve jail time!
And of course, the FEDS and the phone companies are right on top of these scum to put them in jail. Yeah, right.
