      They are just bad. Call twice a day. A quick ****** Search shows dozens of entities reporting them as a scam. They have a justifiable 1 rating here on BBB. I always ask them details regarding their requests---never, ever get an answer. I really want these calls to stop but blocking them or using the no call lists just doesn't work.

      I have continuously asked the organization to stop calling me. I am registered on the Do Not Call registry. Its been 4 years plus that they have called and its harassment at this time. Im at the point where I am asking them why do they keep calling me when Ive asked to be removed from the list and they hang up the phone. Today I was called from ************ line. Its pointless to block because they keep change their number.

      These people consistently robo-call me for donations despite me asking repeatedly to be removed from the list. It is a scam and they are conducting these calls illegally without offering the opportunity for people to opt out.

      These people are calling me 2 or 3 times a day every day including evenings and weekends. I block them each time but they keep calling using different numbers. I have requested multiple times to be removed from their calling list but they continue to call me multiple times a day. This is now harassment. I want removed from their calling list.

      In 2022 I was solicited by the National Police and Troopers Association. They want to turn you over to a secure transaction line for a donation. I requested something be mailed and sent $25. I should have read up on them online. Their phone calls do not stop. This week alone I have received 5 calls from them. In each call I have asked for my number to be removed from their call list. Today, the woman said I had agreed a couple of weeks ago to pay $25 but they hadn't received my payment yet. I told them in no uncertain terms I did not agree to a donation and to remove my number from their call list. The numbers are all coming from a 585 area code identified as Farmington, ** - *****************-577-5223, ************ etc. Blocking them obviously does no good.

      I made the mistake of making a donation last year & realized it was a scam soon after. This National *********************************************** Association continue to call my personal ********* business number asking for money. Now I'm receiving pledge invoices. I just want them to stop all calls & mailing. It's becoming a harassment now.

      I have received numerous phone calls and request for donation several times. I have received phone calls and I don't answer them and block them but they continue to harass me. They even requested my credit card information. I have asked them to remove me from their lists but I get more calls from other organizations requesting a donation. It's so frustrating as I can't answer my phone when they call, otherwise it increases the number of phone calls from other organizations requesting donations.

      I was contacted by the National Police and Troopers Association and I Explained to them that I am raising 2 teenagers by myself on an income of a little over $700 a month and cannot afford to donate to them. However, after being pressured by the the woman on the phone I said I would CONSIDER donating if I was able to come up with any extra money if they mailed me a donation form because I don't give out my credit card over the phone But that prompted the woman to argue with me And insist my info is safe until I said "no donation form, no donation" And then she agreed to send a form. Ever since I have been bombarded with calls from numerous phone numbers demanding I make good on my "pledge". I block the numbers daily but they continue to call from new numbers with new area codes but the calls all say they are from within my state of residence, ** . I have called back and asked to be removed from their call list multiple times. I have spoken to the caller several times and asked to be removed. They just keep calling. I am being extremely harassed at all hours of the day and night. Is there anything I can legally do to stop this endless harassment?

      I also gave $25 to the organization. They called in January and I pledged the $25 and asked for a bill. Within 2 weeks they began calling asking for me to pay over the phone with a card. I refused and said I was paying by check. The person became extremely rude. I have since received what feels like 100's of phone calls from other "associations" asking for donations. Some are robocalls, some are live. I receive 4-5 per day, always from a different number. I completely regret giving this organization any money and hope the BBB will clear up this issue.
