I received at call at 9:23 am on May 24, 2014 from 407-982-2025. My caller ID said, "FOP FL." I've had about four calls in the last couple of weeks from people with FOP showing on my caller ID. The last call was a couple of days ago and when I answered the phone the person would not stop talking long enough for me to ask him to put my number on his do not call list. I got frustrated and hung up on him. I don't remember if the call was from the same number. What I don't understand is why they keep calling back when you make it perfectly clear to them that you're not interested in making a contribution to the police benevolent fund or whatever the name of the charity is.
This is a telemarketing company that calls themselves the Florida FOP. It is not the real Fraternal Police organization. These solicitors that try to intimidate people into giving them money. Very little of the money collected actually goes to the police fund. These are scammers. Don't talk to them and do not give them any money. Don't answer the phone. They are frauds. They have been on 20/20.
They just called at 8:16 AM. It really ticked me off because I was asleep. The caller ID appeared as "FOP FL". I didn't answer, though because I got to the phone too late. I'm sure its a scam. They called way too early this morning.
No message left. I looked up the name on caller ID which is FOP FL. It is Fraternal Order of Police. I don't believe it though. Will not answer and if they continue to call will block them.
