This phone number is calling to do fund raising for the Washington Fraternal Order of Police Memorial Foundation. I have called the number. It directs you to a customer service department that can answer questions, help you donate, or anything else related to the FOP. Also, there’s information on www.wafop.com . Plus, you can contact them there with any questions or requests.
The FOP is doing a lot of really great things for Washington police officers and the people that call are trying to help them raise money so they can do even more good.
NEVER AGREE TO DONATE OVER THE PHONE, TOO MANY SCAMS OUT THERE
3RD PARTY TELEMARKETERS calling on behalf of charities keep 85% - 90% of all donations received.
If you wish to donate to the Fraternal Order of Police. call your local Police Dept - they can give you the LEGITIMATE contact info for their local order and donate directly.
Tell any charity to STOP using telemarketers - remind them no one wants to receive these calls PERIOD

Consumers not told fundraisers were pros
I keep getting calls from this number - I don't answer the phone when they call and they never leave a message. Tonight they called at 9PM. I'm getting really irritated. I think I might wait until after midnight and start calling them back each night to see how they like it.
