They say they are collecting for the Police Memorial Fund. The Washington State Law Enforcement Memorial Fund DOES NOT solicit by telephone. I went to their website. It believe this is a scam.
It is the Fraternal Order of Police. They are legit. They help with community charity programs and families of police officers who have been killed on duty.
It's not necessarily a scam but if you want to donate ask for a breakdown of where the money goes. I believe only a tiny tiny percentage is donated. THe rest goes to pay their employees and expenses. I had a friend who worked for them and did this and he quit because the job gave him a guilty conscience.
No, they really are from the washington memorial. NOT washington state...its washington fraternal order of police. I donate every year, its not a scam.
I don't know about you all, but I have gotten at least 75 abandoned calls from these clowns. If you look at their website it's gibberish. If you track down their address it says they live in Lake Forest Park. They are SCAM ARTISTS, folks. I have my number onthe Do Not Call list and they ignore it. They are a bunch of clowns harassing people. I will never in my life give so much as a penny to a bum who calls me twenty times a week. In my case they are using my telephone number as a dump, the telemarketer has to rack up so many calls per hour and I'm one of those. DON'T answer the phone when they call! Report these calls to the FCC and the WA State Attorney General's office. The State Atty General said to contact them every time, as they are building a case against these con artists.
