number this time was 630-331-2239 solicited funds to protect children from sex offenders or so he said,
did not know organizations president.  It's a police union from Elmhurst, IL. Said they were a charity and that the no call list did not apply.

Hung up soon as I answered.  did *69 to get #.

asked for my address and a donation to icops.org.  wanted a credit card or online donation.  Said they would send materials to my house and asked if I would 100% donate as this was their only source of funds since illinois state cut the budget.  I called caller id and got 708 401 7426

Someone called my home at 14:06 this afternoon.  As i did not recognize the number and the id simply stated "bellwood, Il", I did not pick up.  A message was not left.  When you try to call the number back, a message states that the number is not in service.  Sounds fishy.

Got call from this #.  Caller i.d. stated Illinois.  Left no message.  2nd time they called.  I am on a do not call list.

Answered to a dead phone.  No response from other end.

I got this #, caller ID says "Bellwood, IL".  I say hello, Fast-talking guy said something about "police council, how ya doing?"  Knowing full well police would never call to solicit donations, I just hung up.

These marketing people call & hang up and then report the day and time they got a person on the line.  That information is valuable.  

Same here - hung up & did *69
but how can that number be calling?  If you try and call it says the number you have reached is not in service -- so if it's not in service how is it making calls?

Picked up - a man saying he was calling on behalf of the police to get donations. I have heard this is not the FOP, and sometimes they use inmates to make these calls.
