    <description>&lt;P&gt;When someone comes to you&amp;nbsp;and tries to sell you a service or some repair work, ask to see their driver license. If they don't have one, or refuse - close the door. If they show it to you, check to see that it belongs to the person holding it; make sure it is current; make sure it is from YOUR state. Then use your phone to take a picture of it. Now, if anything goes wrong, you can find them...and so can the police.&lt;/P&gt;</description>

      <description>&lt;P&gt;&amp;nbsp; This is a good tip...&amp;nbsp; I personally consider anyone who comes to the door unsolicited, trying&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;to push of promote anything with absolute suspicion.&amp;nbsp; It is illegal to solicit services this way in many areas, partly because it is stupid/dangerous to help oneself onto another persons property... and partly because 99% of predatory, take-the-money-and-run kind-of schemes start this way.&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;&amp;nbsp; I would recommend you not even engage in any conversation at all with these people because&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;&amp;nbsp;being this arrogant and presumptuous already means they obviously do not respect you or your property.&lt;/P&gt;</description>
