Received a call from this number. Caller identified himself as representing Fraternal Order of Police, Pima County Lodge 20. Caller solicited a donation. A recent Pima County Sheriff Office press release warned that FOP does not make telephone solicitations, and this was a scam.
I have received several calls from this number. Caller ID says CARROLTON, KY. If it's the FOP, why are they calling from Kentucky to solicit money in Arizona? Very suspicious.
This is one reason I have caller ID, so I can see who it is before answering, and avoid calls from places, people, or numbers I don't recognize.
Number has been calling me over several months without ever leaving a message.
Someone has identified them, it's a scam: Fraternal Order of Police.
Latest snag is that they use different phone numbers on purpose, all from Carrollton KY, to make it difficult to report them by individual number to Do Not Call. (519-0288, 519-0290, 519-4606). I've noticed that with other crap callers as well.
Do Not Call is loosing its efficiency and was not sufficiently thought through.
I think it's time to overhaul that whole project so we are free again to go to the phone with some trust.
Never give donations to a stranger who calls you. Might be a scammer. Might be a legit independent fund raiser who keeps 99% for themselves and sends 1% to the charity. Best to donate directly to the charity so they will get 100% of your donation.
