Troopers or Scam?

The same has happened to me this week. He is probably paid to solicit, I don't have time either.

These people are paid solicitors, not law enforcement as most of them attempt to lead you to believe. The law enforcement associations that they represent only get a small portion of the funds raised. Just hang up. I consider it to be a borderline scam.

It could be a scam...there have been several in the past that operated that way...more than likely it is a Trooper endorsed solicitation. They should be able to provide you with information you can confirm by calling the local Trooper post.

What I dislike is that the Troopers receive a ridiculously low amount of the money from this type of solicitation...something like 10 or 15 percent of your donation actually makes it to the Trooper Association.

Three times in 24 hours??? Thats a bit much don't ya think. You can always tell them to take you off their list.

I have tried to ask them about what percentage goes to the cause they are raising money for ( usually the Widows and Orphan's Fund) and they have gotten all loud and edgy saying I can just TALK to their SUPERVISOR!!

What difference is it going to make WHO I talk to if they are giving pennies on the dollar to the organization they are raising funds for??

Wierd.
