The National Coalition for Police and Troopers has been calling my phone for over a year soliciting money to be donated to their organization. I have asked them over 30 times to put my on the Do-Not-Call list of which later to receive a call. This preditorial organization has a BBB rating of F. I have blocked hundreds of numbers over the year from this organization and their affiliates. I do not believe this is an actual company that is the National Coalition for Police and Troopers as the calls would stop when asked. But, I received in the mail one of their donation invoices to remit payment supporting the possibility that this may be a legit organization. If the solicitation calls do not stop immediately, I am going to file harassment charges with the Sheriffs Department of which this company resides.Initial Complaint

I have been receiving ***** call per day from this organization for months now. I continually block, report and delete the numbers but it makes no difference. I've made repeated requests to be placed on the do not contact list and each time I'm told l'll be placed on the do not contact list but the calls continue! I am asking for the harassment to stop and to be removed from all contact lists. I have never made a donation to this organization nor do I plan to, as I believe this is a scam. I am asking BBB to investigate and bring an end to the continual harassment of so many!Initial Complaint

I donated to the National *********************************************** Association and the company that they use to solicit calls will not stop calling me. I receive 3 to 4 calls a day for them. I have tried the do not disturb registry but it does not stop charities from calling. I also tried to block the phone numbers, but I have blocked 20 so far and they still keep calling. I am at my wits end with this. I thought that this should be bought to the attention of the BBB.Initial Complaint

I get calls from this organization several time a day evey day and this has been going on for months. I keep blocking numbers but it doesn't matter. I've made repeated requests to be placed on the do not contact list. I've each time I'm told I'll be placed on the do not contact list but the calls have never stopped. I'm being harassed by this organization and I want to never be contacted or get mail again. I donated once in 2023 and if I knew it was going to lead to this, I never would have. They also shared or sold my information (without my knowledge or consent) with the National association of Firefighters. I'm getting nonstop calls from that organization now as well.Initial Complaint

I do not live in Texas and keep getting calls from the nation coalition of police officers for a donation. I have told them I am disabled and on a limited income and remove my name from their call list. They keep calling even after I've blocked their number they call from a new number then I start getting calls from the national coalition for disable veterans. How can you ask for a donation from someone who makes 14k a year to live on and can't work. I feel harrassed.Initial Complaint

I received a call from someone telling me they were asking for pledges and donations for the National Police and Troopers Association. The caller spoke so fast that I could barely understand a word from his mouth. I asked him who he was representing, and he gave me his name, which I'm sure was fake and I can't remember. He spoke so fast. He continued to talk so fast that I could not understand him, and I asked him several times to please repeat what he was saying and to slow down, but he did not. Finally, I asked him to stop speaking and tell me who he was representing and trying to collect donations for. He told me he was collecting donations for the annual drive for the National Police and Troopers Association. Then he asked me if he could count on my donation. I immediately said, "Yes!" because he had asked me if I had received something in the mail from him yet, and I said no. I assumed he was checking off my name as a donor, so once I received the "mail," I could donate then, but he immediately said, "Wait for the billing department to come online." I said, "Wait!" I was transferred. When I asked the lady from the "billing department" what organization she was representing and who I was supposedly giving money to, she told me. She then spoke so quickly that I couldn't understand her! She asked for my pledge and credit card number so I could pay the $50 I would donate to the so-called "National Police and Troopers Association." I asked her to give me a minute because I only give money to an organization that I research thoroughly to know where and how my money will be used. When I entered the "organizations" name into my search engine, ******* all that came up was the word "SCAM! DON'T DONATE! IMPERSONATERS!" I then told the lady that I would NOT be donating, that I knew they were trying to scam people, and that I would report them to the **** She immediately hung up! I am on the Do Not Call List, but I continue getting scammers calling me. I blocked their number; however, I'm sure they used a random number-generating system and may try to call back using a different number. My phone flagged it as "Potential Spam," but I answered anyway because I thought it might be my doctor. **** it! Please act on this because I donate a lot to police organizations. What they do is essential, and it matters a lot! Thank you for taking the time to read this, help in this matter, and hopefully take action that will permanently cripple them! How many people did they get money from who need to be more keen and wise enough to notice they were scammers trying to steal their money? So sad. Kind regards, *******************Initial Complaint

I have received multiple calls from this place daily for months. I thought if I gave them some money, they would go away, but instead, they call even more! I told them multiple times to remove my name and number from their call list but they still have not removed me and I'm still receiving calls. They are harassing me. I'm an old woman! I don't need this disturbance.Initial Complaint

I donated to a police officer's ********************** out of ****** a few months ago and ever since I've been receiving at least 4-5 spam calls a day. I block the numbers every time and most don't answer or if I do I hang up immediately. These people need to quit harassing me. The numbers they have used include, but aren't limited to:***************** ***************** ***************** ***************** ***************** ***************** *****************
