I was very upset to find out that my Mother had written a check, for some books, to a door to door sales child, who claimed to live in her neighborhood. It was to a company called Dynasty Sales LLC out of Phoenix. After checking, she found out the child did not live where he said.
My Mom said she only received 1 book, but ordered and paid for 5 books. Since I live in AZ, she asked me to look up the phone number so that she could ask what the delay was for the other books. Of course, after I got on the internet to search for Dynasty Sales LLC, all I was bombarded with was Scam Alert and Don't do any business with this company...etc.
My Mom is always trying to help people and can be very gullible, especially if it is a child or any type of person in need. Even after I gave her the phone number (602-547-3700 for Ryan Atkins) she still assumed it was legit. She even called and spoke with someone claiming to be Issac. Having a phone number, someone answering the phone, and a printed piece of paper with the company name/logo on it is sufficient for my Mom to believe that everything is as it should be. Oh so gullible!!!!
I told her that the next time anyone comes to her door, don't answer it without knowing the person. If she does, and they are selling something, tell them she needs to go Google the company before she speaks to them anymore. (She doesn't have a computer.) If they are not there when she gets back, call 911. Let the police know they are somewhere in the neighborhood.
Hopefully, scammers like these will eventually be caught.
