    Default Weird scam attempt on my wife.

    Some guy just knocked on the door today and informed my wife he works at a body shop and her Trailblazer has "Black Mold" in it and it needs to be taken care of.


    WTF? I hate being able to see the street from my house. I need a bigger property so they have to really work at coming to see me or the wife.

    Now that is indeed wierd, creative as hell on the scammers part. I think a lot of the crap going on is a sign of the times, the worse the economy gets and the fewer jobs available is certainly causing not only things like this but crime rates are going up as well. Kind of a sad world we live in right now and only hope this country goes back to common sense somewhere in my lifetime....

    Why did she open the door to a stranger?

    Lic plate info, description of "salesman", time of day etc???

    This! Had a windshield guy call the other day, not sure how he got our number, saying he was doing his "yearly checkup" to see if we needed new windshields. Yes, the Dodge does, but I'll seek you out, don't cold call me! Asked him never to call us again, if we want to replace our windshield we'll find you.

    More info....
    Does she have a black Trailblazer?
    Has it been in a body shop recently?
    If she has a Trailblazer, did he say how he saw the mold?
    Seems a little "left field" for somebody casing your house. Usually they just ask for someone by a made up name.

    Mold? That sounds pretty serious. I hope she set up an appointment to have that taken care of.
