Only bcoz it's a call from my area (I'm in NYC) I decided to call the # back, tho I blocked my own # if that does any good. Shockingly, a live person picked up. He gave his name as Michael something and as soon as he said something about a Police organization I let him have it w/all those words that a true New Yawka knows and will use. Several yrs. ago when I got calls like this I contacted the main Police #, not my local precinct, and was told that the Police never solicit or do fundraising via phone. Maybe that's changed since then and the call MIGHT have been legit but I'm still not stupid enuf to give out any info about myself; my usual line is "wd. u like my checking acct. or credit card #". Then I tell them to **** off.
