Scam Salesman


 
On February 11, 2016, a salesman tried to sell an elderly woman a bed worth several thousand dollars and refused to leave. The salesman was very persistent on getting her information.   The salesman quickly left after the woman told him Law Enforcement was on the way.   The woman explained she had initially received a call a few weeks back from “Easy Rest” stating she won a bed.

 Please be aware of any suspicious door to door solicitation.  Contact Law Enforcement if you are approached by a salesman asking for your information.  Get the vehicle description, license plate, and any information on the salesman.
