Called and told my kid that he was the police and wanted to know if his parents were home. My kid hung up on him. And came and got me I called the number right back and just got a recording. Very scary.

These telemarketers who call representing "police benevolence" funds are not organizations that help law enforcement.  Our son is retired from 30 years of law enforcement in north west Florida and he says these telemarketers pocket most of the money they collect.  And I, too, wondered why call is coming from Mass. to collect for Florida law enforcement.  I answered a couple of these calls, not knowing who it was, and when they find out you have a family member in law enforcement, they know the "gigs up".  I just told him that we support our local police dept. and NEVER make any contribution by phone.  Thanked him and hung up.

Try to find some business info on Outreach Calling other than their virtual office location Reno Nevada. If you ask any of their reps where they're located, they don't even know what state they're in, now that's a professional business model, isn't it?
