Caller ID displayed as "Unknown Name", following by an unrecognizable number. I let it go to my answering machine to screen the call. They didn't leave a message. I dialed back the number, remained silent on the line, and encountered a human male recording that said, "Uh...yes...thanks so much for calling back. This is Joe Collins, calling for the Fraternal Order of Police Texas State Lodge." I then hung up.
It seems this is another number belonging to the Fraternal Order of Police Texas State Lodge, a "non-profit" organization with questionable practices. Previous numbers that I have reported are 214-509-6926, 512-717-5471, 737-204-0182, 737-204-0190, 737-204-0192, 682-270-7064, and 214-200-4196.
Ahhhh, the good ole days when telemarketers did not call on a Sunday morning. Guess the cockroaches are every day now.
I did not answer and am glad I didn't if its the FOP people who pretend to be a charity. Blocked. Wow if everyone blocks everyone what would these slimmers do?
Got call from 737-300-6042 today, Oct 1, 2016, 10;40 a.m.
I first heard from/of these people in the mid 1990's when they almost scammed me into buying a "free" subscription to their
"Official" Police/Trooper magazine -- this included some window decals to affix to my car that would "guarantee" that I wouldn't get a ticket if stopped. -------"pooooossss" The UPS driver knew me and warned me about the scam, so I PO"d (refused) the materials and never sent them any money. Now they's back at it again--only with a new set of scam numbers.
