    This business continues to call and ask me for donations. They have been doing it for years. They continue to call me from different phone numbers despite trying to be removed from the calling list. Today they called me from ***************** and asked for a donation again.

    In December I received a call from this Non-profit looking for a donation. Because I was driving, and couldn't give a credit card number, I asked them to send me an envelope. When it arrived, I promptly sent a check out for $35.00. Since then I have been receiving phone calls at least 3 times a day from *********, ******************, and ********** areas. I feel that they shared my information with very similar non profits such as Emergency responders Association, Firefighters Association. Also, They continue to send me envelopes reminding me to mail my pledge when they received and cashed my check. In 2 months time I have blocked over 100 calls from this area and they continue calling evey day. Please stop them from preying on willing donors. This is causing so much frustration.

    I have requested several times for the organization to stop calling for donations. I request once a day for them to stop, yet they continue to call. Multiple times in one day, everyday. It has got to the point that it is a real problem. I will file suit if it does not stop. I wanted it documented that today, March 1 2023, I again requested to be put on the do not call list. As usual, they just hang up to avoid completing the task of putting me on the do not call list.

    There is a company claiming to be collecting donation money for the police that has been calling me for several years now. It's always the same man, he calls himself "****." I have blocked every number he has called me from, thanks to automated robo dialers this doesn't help. At first I would polity explain that I can't afford to donate as my income is less than $500 a month. He still pressed the issue of donation. It's been at least 3 years now of calls at least 1 or more times a month.

    This SCAM ORGANIZATION called me on Saturday November 25th, 2022 at 2:27pm. I am on the "NATIONAL DO NOT CALL REGISTRY"! This man(live person) stated that he would be sending me a return envelope and wanted to ensure that I would send a donation to help support the Police. I did ask for a location and he replied that he was in "D.C". He then became very angry and aggressive and began demanding that I answer his question, so I hung up. The phone no. ************** today is the 1st time that I actually answered but these people have been harassing me for months from various numbers but leaving messages about this "Support of the Police ****************

    Someone from this organization keeps calling my work number and trying to get me to commit to donating money to support police officers. When I asked questions to try to determine if the organization is legitimate and who the money donated goes to, they hang up on me. I have told the individual calling that since they refuse to answer my questions I will not donate any money to them and to stop calling me; however, I am continuing to receive calls.

    On September 6, 2022 this company charged $25 to my mother's debit card. My mother has alzheimers and does not understand a lot, on top of that she is very hard of hearing. The bank said this company has her card number on file. I told my bank to take it off of there. I tried to call a couple times but got no human to answer. They did not give a company or organization name during the call. This is a scam on older, vulnerable people.

    This organization has been spam calling me relentlessly for the last 3 months. Sometime, I receive as many as 10 calls per day in rapid succession. I have asked to removed from their calling list multiple times to no avail. I am not sure if this is a legitimate organization however, the donations are not tax deductilbe and there is no proof on their website that the money collected is being used for the advertised purpose. I believe this to be an illegal entity operating under the guise of an organization that is supporting our nation's police. Unless they can prove they are helping our law enforcement professionals, this business needs to be shutdown. Even more disturbing is the fact that if you DO agree to donate, you are redirected to a payment confirmation supervisor that is obviously from a call center in the *********** - so much for supporting American jobs, huh?
