Seattle Police Guild warns of phony solicitors The Seattle Police Guild says phone solicitors who claim to raise funds on the guild’s behalf are not legitimate. The labor guild doesn’t solicit funds from the public, nor does it give other solicitors permission to do so on its behalf, guild officials said. Anyone who has received a phone call from someone claiming to raise money for the guild is asked to call the Attorney General’s Office Consumer Protection Division at 800-551-4636, or the guild office at 206-767-1150.
