Call to my landline. No message. Typical robo call.

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." Their system must have detected silence on my end because suddenly I heard a robotic "Hello? Hello?" The call then disconnected.

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, and 737-204-0190.

Unknown Name, does not leave message. Calls at least 4 times per week.  It's a new number for the fraternal Order of Police.  I have told them to take my name off the call list but they still call.  I'm on the DNC but that doesn't work against crooks.

the Fraternal Order of Police Texas State Lodge web site shows they are a ripoff.  looks like hasn't been touched since 2011.  /the newsletter Texas FOP Newsletter    is Fall 2008 Newsletter

I get these FOP and TX>COPS calls but from all different numbers. I never know which to answer anymore.
