Door-to-Door Magazine Sellers Claimed to Be Homeless or Students

We were visited by this company first on April 24th by Gary and then on April 27th by Paula. Gary said he was homeless and trying to get off the street. Paula said she was a homeschool student working on a scholarship. They were selling magazines. When Paula left, we saw her outside with Gary, though he was supposedly from "American Community Services" and she was supposedly from "G.L.C., Inc." She said she lived in the house behind us. She does not. A very sick elderly man lives there alone.
Gary and Paula are not homeless or homeschoolers. They are scamming and pretending to represent a charity to get people to buy magazines and pay the donation fee.
On April 27th at 2 P.M., we reported this scam operation by Gary and Paula to the local police department.
We cancelled our checks. Our bank advised us to close our accounts and get new ones because of the potential for theft or fraud.
