Never answer your door for people you don't know. I've been caught outside a few times while washing my car. Salesmen trying to sign me up for solar, new roofs, warranties, security service and other crap. I tell them I want to be paid in cash first before I sign. A LOT of cash. When I won't budge, they walk away.

I agree with what Judy true Lucas I don't answer the phone if I don't recognize the number I delete them block them so they can't call me again but sometimes they call you from a different number and publishers clearing House is the worst I stopped even answering calls or answering it on my computer or in the mail it's a scam you buy stuff I've been doing it for years and I never want anything the other one is watch who you answer stuff for on Facebook especially if it's from Chicago PD and they say if you find the answer to this they'll send you money I fell for it they said okay we're going to send you $8,000 and when it gets into your bank account you got to send us for back I blocked them you're going to give me money you're going to give me money why do I have to give you back money but Chicago PD they got all these foreign names under it with all these scams don't answer it cuz it is a scam
