there is no such thing as an association of Narcotics Officers....just like the Fraternal Order of Police it is a private clubhouse SCAM.....why should anyone Give to a GOVERMENT AGENCY ????? Even if it was real. Thia a a Democracy and we pay TAXES up the [***] for regulation and enforcement.
They continue to call my business and are very rude...first they ask your name and if you take a few seconds to answer they say "IS THERE A PROBLEM, SUSAN???" as if to intimidate you into donating! Have told them repeatedly NOT to call but they continue. SCAM SCAM SCAM--actuallyI was told they are a non-profit but only donate 20% of the money they make and keep the rest!!!
The PA Narcotics Officers Association does exist and is legit (www.pnoa.org). The problem is the telemarketing company. It is the same company that markets for various other charities, such as the Sherrif's Association, Firefighters, etc. They are a HUGE pain. Won't take no for an answer, keep calling back after telling them not to call again. And one person actually threatened me once after I told him to quit pestering me. They have been calling me for at least 5 years.
for the last few weeks, I have been receiving calls from 570-763-4685 on my phone without leaving any message. The background noise sounds like in a vehicle or box.... I wish they would stop calling! It seems to happen every Wed. evening when I am not able to answer the phone.
has anyone looked at PNOA.org? I just got the phone call but didn't answer and they didn't leave a message on my machine. I jumped online to look up the number and found this website...though it doesn't mean at all that this is a legitimate organization. just thought I would share. My landlord works for the sheriff's department, I'll have to ask him next time we talk about this PNOA stuff.
