9 P.M. At night... We were outside working on our house and a male between the age of 25-29 approached us asking if we would talk to him for a moment. He said it was part of a program for young men to promote their business and people skills. He asked us to purchase some magazines from him to help him out and the more we bought the more his "score" would go up. We both felt like it was a scam and ask him if out right if it was a scam. He stayed around talking to us for at least 20/30 minutes and we eventually bought 1 magazine from him for 9.95. I wrote him a check and he told me that he would get more points for cash. I told him that all I had was a check and he said that was fine. He kept wanting us to buy more to receive a bonus but I had a gut feeling he was just a con-man and he wasn't getting anymore money from either of us. He then ask us to write a few words to turn in about our experience with him evaluating his personality, people skills and professionalism. So we did and he went on his way.
When he left we both said that we would never receive our magazine and so glad to see that our gut feeling was correct and pray others will read this and shut the door when anyone comes to your home from this "so called" magazine salesman. He was an excellent con-artist. Don't be fooled!!
