Told them I was not interested before they finished, then the lady was rude and ask " not interested on what?"...

I gave them $380 and have never heard or got anything they said I would. Silly mistake from me

asking for donations for police association charity. They wouldn't take no for answer.

Caller: advertising

this is a legit advertising company supporting the police magazines and l have been a customer for many years .
its not a scam

Caller asking for the owner of the organisation, then asking for sponsorship or sales, sounds like they were looking for money. Lots of background noise (sounds like in a call centre).

Called me and requested for money donation for the police's magazine. I told him that I am not interesting for supporting the magazine, then he asked me back: so you don't want the police's staffs support your business.

it's utterly disgraceful that this scammer is still operating years after initial reports of bad practices

Caller: Police magazine scammer

I've had calls before and assumed they were genuine. This is my third call now. I'm tired of saying no. A quick google and this turns up, indicating that it is likely to be a scam: https://nfrnonline.com/news/police-booklet-scam-targeting-small-businesses/

If I can see it will be a nuisance call, I answer the phone 'This is Brisbane Umbrella Rentals. We are out of umbrellas right now. Good bye'

Said calling from the Police Assoc or Neighbour hood watch. Scam

Caller: Zac - Qld Police Association something

Asked for owner of company, I declined and then he hung up. Dodgy caller.

Caller: Alan McGregor

This guy has called before claiming to seek donations towards a police journel, police calander or maybe the Secret Policeman's Ball. BLOCK BLOCK BLOCK

Said they were from Neighbourhood Watch and Police something. Said they are putting together a booklet for Year 11 students to educate them about lots of social things. Wanted me to pay for advertising in the booklet. I just said no and hung up.

claiming from police.. no thank you.. hard to get rid off .. ended up hanging upon him..

Said they were with the Police Institute when I said ' I had never heard of them they said we produce the Police Journal QPOL. I doubt this very much. He was pleasant enough but this is spam not interested. There is no such magazine I know I worked for them.

told me no direct line to get the owner to call him back and he will call back again.

Missed call. Tried to call back but was engaged constantly. Glad I looked the number up now and read all the reviews.

not trusting after review

Request for money donation for the magazine, and found my number on a face book page I help admin, and told me they were calling businesses to gain donations, the page is not a business but a support for a sport, was confused as he told me it was a business while reading out the blurb from the page to me on the phone.....very strange and a scam

I received a miss call from this number today. I called back but it is constantly engaged..................
