Frat Ord Police called me @ 930 am and I was kinda freaked but there was no messege left. Googled the number and found these comments. Was going to call the number since it was a local number but now I'm not going to.

i too go the same call and caller id comes up FRAT ORD police . call was on caller id 2/10/2012 .. glad i looked it up to find out its only a scam !

I got a call from this number at the place where I work.  When he asked for the "lady of the house," I told him it was not a house.  Then he asked, in a tone implying that I had said something incredibly rude, "WHAT did you say?"  I repeated myself.  He was silent and then rudely said, "I didn't REALIZE I was calling a business.  I'll make a note of that."  I said thank you and hung up.  Very strange.

Rec'd call at 530 p.m. On landline. Caller ID read Frat Ord Police
Thought it may be a scam,,,,not sure,,,,waited for caller to leave msg on answering machine. No message left. Looked number up online and found complaints about it. I am adding it to "do not call" list register.

I go the same message  Frat  ord Police no  message  left.   I hate this crazy scams , should be a law for this.

Just got a call from that number today (1/13/12).  I answered just in case it was some sort of police office trying to reach us because of an emergency or something.  All they did was ask if my husband was home (asked by name).  I said no and they just said "Okay, we'll call back later.  Thank you."  

Afterwards I was like "That was stupid, now they know he's not there."  So, was googling the FRAT ORD POLICE to see what came up.  Glad to know it was only a scam call and not someone trying to case my home to see if someone was alone.  But, lesson learned.  Not answering again.

They called at like 9 am and didnt leave a message..... seems odd... it said frat ord police on caller id...what do they want?!

Called my house today too. Didn't answer. Figured it was bogus.

Got a call from them and didn't answer. I never do if I don't know the number, and they hung up half way through the answering machine message.

I don't hear my land line calls as I turn off my ringer.  I look at the caller ID and sometimes look up the number if no message.  Usually nothing important, mostly scammers,  charity, or telemarketers.  I only give out my cell to family or friends and anything else to my land line.  Works great!

As someone stated above it is true that these people are loosely associated with the police and they are an organization raising money but approx. 90% they keep and the small portion goes to the charitable organization....Yes technically they can continue to call you per the fact the do not call list does not apply to them however if you call the number back all companies themselves have to have a do not call list...It does apply in this situation....Call them give no information other than the number you want removed from the call list

Fraternity order of Police and fireman soliciting donations

Showed up "FRAT ORD POLICE" on caller id...made me nervous at first.  It's a solicitation for money.  It didn't seem genuine.  I think there's a scam going on with this one.  

I'm sure it's because of the time of year in addition to 10-year reunion of 9/11 but they tried to tug on the old heartstrings trying to get you to imagine the fate of those brave first responders when police and firemen were called to the Trade Center Towers on that fateful morning.

Beware!!!!

I got that exact same call on my caller Id today(9-10-11) No message left here either, Grrrr

"FRAT ORD POLICE"  612-808-9603  SCAM FOR MONEY FOR POLICE!

Got a call from 9/9/11 7:22pm from FRAT ORD POLICE 612-808-9693. I wasn't home to take call, but disabled foster adult may have answered. Thought it was odd and concerning for the police to call our home so Googled the name/number from caller ID...

Question: Do these people also solicit door to door?

They are probably asking for donations.  

Most charities that use the word "police" or "sherrif" in the name are fake.  They talk to some badly-trained clerk in a small-town police department office, give $100 to that police deparment, and use their name to collect thousands of dollars.  Typically these charities keep more than 95% of every donation to cover found raising expenses.  They are charities, so the Do Not Call List law does not apply to them.

Ignore the call.  Hang up on them.  Never give them any money.  If you donate to them they'll call for more and more and more.  It will take years to get rid of them.  My spouse made that mistake once.  Never again.

I got a call on 9-3-11.. my caller ID said "FRAT ORD POLICE"

Who are these people? They called when I was not home. They did not leave a message either. More importantly...What do they want? Who do they want? What is there nature for call?

Frat ord police.  Didn't answer. Seems shady.

Phone call from this place asking for my husband.  Repeated several times that he was not here.  Got message that said "we could not hear your reply if anyone is there, will call back another time."  All tha showed up on caller ID was FRAT ORD POL.  No idea who these people are.
