Called 7:30 on a Sunday night. Identified himself as the Fraternal Order of Police. I did not let him get any further. I told him I wasn't interested. Why would The FOP call my number near Philadelphia when the area code is from the Harrisburg/Lancaster area?
Just received this call. It is a new number with VoIP calling system that would not leave a message and hung up before the answering system started (4 rings). This is most likely a marketing or scam call.
this is the Police Chief / FOP / Firefighter Training scam - these clowns have a bank of numbers they are using and continue to call stating they are collecting donations for police training / firefighter training or whatever the flavor of the day is.
Has been going on for a number of years. Some actually DO send funds to police and / or firefighters - BUT the caller keeps approximately 80% of everything collected.
Confirming everything Roger said above as true. Block this number unless you want up to 3 calls a day for the next month. They will do the same thing next month using another number.
