There is another article on this scam in the LAT today. Unfortunately, I may have been a victim of it myself. So far, I have not received any bills for something I did not buy. I have received a good number of telemarketing calls in the last two months. It has gotten to the point that I'm considering signing up for phone blocking. I am on the do-not-call list.
I've received numerous calls from a security firm and a solar firm that are marketing in our area. The solar firm showed up at my front door. To do that he had to come through a closed gate and walk a few hundred feet to my door. I calmly asked this 6'3' and half-as-wide guy to leave. He started to argue with me. Big mistake on his part. When he didn't listen to my request to leave the property - I let loose on him. He was escorted to the gate. He may well have been legit.. I do not care. Hope this post helps someone else. cheryl o7o
