Expert Opinion

Never give money or personal details to anyone who claims to be NY police asking for donations. Most callers from this number either stay silent, put you on hold, or immediately launch a fake charity pitch while sounding abrasive. Silent calls and robocalls that mimic live agents are classic red flags. If the caller mentions the NYC Police Department, the Police Benevolent Association, or a "chiefs association," treat it as a scam—legitimate agencies never request funds by phone. Hang up, block the number, and report the incident to the FTC, NYPD’s fraud unit, or your phone carrier. Stay skeptical and protect your personal information.
