e says a woman recently contacted the BBB to report a scammer, who told her that he worked for Brink's Home Security company. The man showed up without an appointment, at the door, and said he wanted to access the security system. She called the company to verify, and turns out, Brink's Home Security doesn't send employees door-to-door, nor do they show up unannounced.

I don't anyone that does door to door do their sales pitch, it feels like 90% of the time its either not worth it or a scam. If I do open the door I tell them I want to see their credentials, take a picture of it and tell them I'm phoning their home office first to verify they are who they say they are. I've had a couple of instance where they mumble that they don't want to do that and I tell them to F off. You have a right to access that kind of verification.
