I received a call from this number @ 3:57 pm on Sunday 11/9/08 from someone posing as a representative of the NYS police department asking for my monetary assistance for a program that protects children from sexual predators in neighborhoods like mine. I am very aware of the closest offenders to my address. Though I was not pressed beyond 2 requests, (the second which asked for a $20 donation), they hung up with a pleasant "have a nice day". BTW I do not live in the 718 area code so this alleged donation....would it have even benefitted my area? Not likely.
I live all the way by Fort Drum. Tonight they called my home phone and when I answered the phone some girl asked for my husband by his first name. My husband is deployed, I called the number back and got the donation message. I have no idea how these people got our home number we are unlisted.....
