Door-to-Door Cleaning Pitch Raises Red Flags

A bbb report about a phishing scam that cost someone $0.0. Learn how to avoid falling victim.

A girl came to my front door and rang the doorbell. When I opened the door, she was holding a small bottle of blue liquid dish soap and handed me a Hook and Associates business card. Then she proceeded to say it was a cleaning business. After reviewing the business card, it has nothing on it about cleaning, only an advertising department and floors, hardwood stairs, etc. I looked up the business. It has a few bad reviews, and apparently they have been in business nine years. The whole thing seems super shady, and the fact that they're going door-to-door in my neighborhood is very alarming and scary. There was a large van that would drop a young girl off to go door-to-door at our houses in the neighborhood. The suite and the address of the business is 06, which tells me it's probably not an actual business location but possibly a lockbox. Please look into this company ASAP. Thank you.
