What Would You Do If Two Young Men Knocked On Your Door & Told You They Had A Way To Save You Money On Your Electric Bill But Weren’t Selling Anything

I didn’t even open the glass storm door. When they said they weren’t selling anything it was a red flag. Like the scam callers who offer to refinance your credit cards for zero percent interest rates 😂. I told them I wasn’t interested and they kept talking. Told them to leave and closed the door. At that point I wouldn’t have trusted them to let them enter my home. No telling what they were up to. I hate to be rude but can’t trust everyone and I was home alone.

Never show them your electric bill.

@Wales They may have not even wanted that information. There is so much info they could gather in a home by doing an “electricity use” assessment in someone’s home. There is so much evil in this world today that nothing would surprise me. They could find out if I lived alone, if there were young children living here, if I had a dog that could be a guard dog or alert me to burglars, they could see if I had a gun safe, what type of possessions or collections of things I had, if I had supplies & food stored, and even find out what type of books I read that are on my bookshelves to see if I am conservative or liberal. There are Commies in this city that have tried to take over and my state is very Conservative in general. This is a university city and draws students from all over the country, and that is one of the main reasons a socialist mayor was voted in several years ago to wreak havoc during the Covid quarantine era and pull political stunts here. She was voted out this past year so they are likely to be doubling down in their efforts to regain some power. And the fact that there were two of these guys working together made me wary, one could have been used to distract me and the other do the dirty work while I was distracted. Didn’t trust them and they never stated their names or who they were working for either. Too many Red Flags.
