I have received various phone calls from people representing themselves as police officers and asking for donations. Are they really police officers?
Police officers and deputies in Lee County do not solicit funds over the telephone nor does the Sheriff’s Office receive any funds at all from any other organization that conducts phone solicitations. If you are not familiar with an organization calling you and asking for a donation, you may wish to ask the caller to send you information on the charity and how they disburse their funds. And NEVER give your credit card number to anyone that calls you over the phone.
