I got a call from this 919-694-1124 number last friday (2/13 at 8:30 PM). i told the "trooper" that I had already opened a case with the attorney general of NC regarding this situation and to stop contacting period. I also told him that what he was doing was illegal because:
NC TROOPER ASSOCIATION - SCAM!!!!
NC does NOT ask it's citizen to contribute trooper/highway patrol organizations.
These people who call are bullies and act no different than mob bullies. I have asked to be removed for over 25 years and they call 4/8 times a month and sometimes over 5 times in one day on a holiday. I really hate when they do it on Memorial/Veteran's Day/4th of July esp but they will do it on religious holidays too and try and use that against the person that they are calling but it doesn't work on me because I now delight in messing with them and making them crazy. They once told me that they patrol ALL roads like they were going to look for me! WOW really?!?!
It is also questionable if the money even goes to any of the families so I would not trust this no matter what they say!!!
This is from the real NC Dept of Public Safety site and this policy still stands so DO NOT DONATE AND REPORT!!!!!

Telemarketers using the Highway Patrol Name to Solicit Contributions

We are receiving an unusual amount of calls from citizens across the state complaining that the Highway Patrol is soliciting contributions for various reasons. The North Carolina State Highway Patrol does not solicit financial contributions from private citizens. NCSHP is funded from tax dollars.

If you have been contacted by a telemarketing organization representing itself to be the North Carolina State Highway Patrol, you should know that the NCSHP receives no financial support from these organizations.

Some groups include in their names the terms "Highway Patrol," "State Troopers," or "North Carolina Highway Patrol." While some officers may be members of these associations on their own time, these organizations are not affiliated with the NCSHP. They are private associations raising money to fund their own programs.

If you have been contacted by an organization that you believe is misrepresenting itself, you can contact the North Carolina Attorney General's Consumer Protection Division at 919-716-6000.

HOWEVER - when i told him that he got mad as hell at me and told me that he just wouldn't call for this campaign but would make sure to call me for the next one. These are not even NC troopers that are calling. they are paid telemarketers.... they also have threatened me and told me that they have all my information and that they will be looking for me when i am out on the roads..
i block every number that they call from and they just keep calling. i just received my latter from the attorney general and i don't know that they will do but it won't be enough to stop them.... they are just evil and i am scared and i quit driving because of them...
they called me again last friday too... they call me every week and i just keep blocking the numbers.... i feel so harassed and i don't know what i can do to be safe!!!!

This is a scam operation.

They called from what appeared to be a NC (Raleigh area) phone number, but the data stream showed this to be from Florida - when called back the number swaps (transfers) and you can hear this before the ring starts - they are claiming to be the NC Troopers Association - a claim I HIGHLY doubt.

See the article below for additional info on this telephone scam:

***************************************************************************************************
RALEIGH — Telephones across the state are ringing with a charitable sales pitch from the Troopers Association, but the Attorney General's Office says the group has used misleading tactics in the past and may be at it again.

In 1996, the Troopers Association agreed to a court order requiring the caller to tell you he or she is a paid solicitor and that the group is not affiliated with the State Highway Patrol.

This week, the Attorney General's Office has received more complaints that the tactics used by the group are aggressive and may be misleading.

When Lynn Johnson got a call from someone last month who said he represented the North Carolina Troopers Association, she started asking questions. She wanted them to send her written material about the group.

"They said 'We can't afford to do that.' I felt if they can't afford to use postage money to send me information, I couldn't afford to donate money to them," said Johnson.

Johnson, who says she wondered who the company really was, made a formal complaint to the Attorney General's Office.

"It's very important that people understand who they're giving to," said Alan Hirsch, Consumer Protection director.

A 1996 court order requires the Troopers Association to be very clear about who they are.

"It's not affiliated with the Highway Patrol. None of the money given to them goes to the Highway Patrol," said Hirsch.

The president of the organization, Charles Lindquist, told WRAL Wednesday that "No complaints have been brought to our attention."

When WRAL asked about where the money goes, he said, "$200,000 or 20 percent of the money goes to us, whichever is greater."

The rest of the money goes to the company making the phone calls for Lindquist's non-profit group. The experience has left Johnson with a bad taste for phone solicitors.

"My telephone is for my use, people to call me, me to call friends and family. It is not to bring aggressive solicitors into my home uninvited," said Johnson.

The Troopers Association has 700 members across the state, including some current and retired members of the State Highway Patrol.

***********************************************************************************************

Scams like this take money away from legitimate groups who really CAN use the money, and need funds.   Paying more than 80% of the funds collected to line the pockets of these scamming telemarketers does NOTHING for society.
