I'm not sure that it is the FOP. If you call Sumter County Sheriff's dept. they will tell you that they do NO telephone solicitations. Same goes for FL Highway Patrol and EMTs around here.

These people have even called the Sumter County Sheriff's office asking for donations.

Just say no or just hang up. They make a lot of money (for themselves) from people who like to help out if there is a need. There isn't in this case.
