Imagine fielding a call from +15129997242 and being greeted by someone claiming to represent a police‑related charity. The pitch usually pressures you to donate or asks for personal details, but the organization is rarely legitimate. Stay skeptical, do not share banking info or send checks, and end the call if the request feels off. Add the number to your phone’s block list, report it to the FTC and the National Do Not Call Registry, and share the experience on consumer‑alert forums. If you’re curious, independently verify any charity through official state resources before considering a contribution.
