NEW BERLIN, WI The New Berlin Police Department is warning residents of a charity scam.
According to a Facebook post, a resident recently contacted police questioning a solicitation for a donation she received in the mail. The solicitation requested funding to support a national drive to provide lifesaving equipment to law enforcement, citing an emergency equipment shortage, and referenced the New Berlin, Wisconsin Area . The solicitation was personally addressed to the resident and originated from an organization identifying itself as the United States Deputy Sheriff s Association.
Subscribe Police conducted a quick internet search of the organization at www.charitynavigator.org, Charity Navigator confirmed the USDSA is a registered non-profit; however, it does award the USDSA a low rating.
