My old man is the one to answer the door, and the conversation went something like this:
Scammer: Hi, I'm going around the neighborhood offering a free home security system, and all you have to do is put a sign of our company in your front yard.
Old Man: I really don't like to advertise my security system in the front yard.
Scammer: Well, the sign won't affect the security of your home.
Old Man: I really don't like to talk about security systems with complete strangers. Bye.
I can't stand these scammers. It's amazing how they've managed to hit almost every house in the country.
ReplyDeleteIt's a very disturbing trend. Fortunately, many communities and neighborhoods are talking about it and warning people.
ReplyDeleteHa. Lovely conversation. I enjoy speaking in French to phone salespersons. Or I did before I got on the do not call list a year ago. "Hello, is Benjamin there?" Ah, je ne sais quoi." "Excuse me?" "Je suis desole. Parlez vous francais?" "Ummmm..." click.
