For those who track door-to-door sightings – both e-mailers say they have no proof these aren’t legitimate, but they wanted to share word of the sightings – read on if you’re interested:
First – a report of a solicitor in Upper Fauntleroy, near 40th and Thistle, walking around offering “window assessments.”
Second, from Amy in South Delridge:
There’s a guy going door to door in the South Delridge area. He just came by our place near Delridge and Trenton, pounding on the doors of all the neighbors as well as ours. He’s wearing khaki colored short sleeve shirt, ballcap, and an orange safety vest with reflectors on it, carrying a clipboard. I couldn’t tell what kind of pants. He got one of my neighbors to answer the door and I thought I heard him say he was with Comcast. Whatever he was selling, he was offering a “new contract” on it.
He or someone dressed like him was here last week around this time of the evening also. Time to put up a No Solicitors sign I guess.
Comcast has previously confirmed they do use door-to-door reps, though they generally do not comment on specific reports. Reminder, the city rules for door-to-door solicitors are linked from the “resources” section at the bottom of our Crime Watch page.
