    Are others being disturbed around dinner hour by aggressive, overly confrontative magazine salesmen? We have a No Soliciting sign out, but they still try to engage us with insinuations…..almost feels like bullying. Any suggestions how to deal with this? Thanks.

    Do these appear to be teens/young adults, and have you perhaps noticed a strange van nearby?

    There have been occasional, recurring stories for years shared here in the forums on these young people selling magazines and being aggressive.

    Yes, and they are from out of state I think.

    Sounds like it might be the same ones.

    I seem to recall in the past that it was reported that the van had California plates.

    I just don’t open the door. I yell thru the door asking “WHO’s THERE?” and if it’s not a friend, I just yell back, “thank you, but NO THANK YOU! Please leave my property now.”
