Door knocker ignoring signs
Tonight in Calgary, I had a door knocker in a Telus uniform walk up to my house, read the sign overtop of my ring doorbell out loud “do not knock or ring”, he scoffs and then says out loud “can I tap” and proceeds to loudly tap on my front door. This sent my dog into a frenzy and woke up my baby. The sign is there for a reason!
Door to door visit
Had a door knock by 3 different people wearing Telus T-Shirts and carrying badges to offer Internet deals. Started talking to one Pempa Tamang. Deal was interesting so I proceeded with conversation - he took my number and texted me details from his number 236-[Mod Edit, removed personal info]. However when I call that number, I get “this call cannot be completed as dialed”. Pempa then called me from 888-[Mod edit, removed personal info] and said it’s a recorded call to proceed with registration. He asked me to text him my drivers license photos - when I said I’m not comfortable he said I could read out the details since it’s a recorded call. I asked him to send me an email from a Telus.com email address to give me the plan details, but he sent it from pe***********[Mod Edit - removed personal info]@gmail.com instead. When I call the 0122 number back, I get a Telus automated response but his unwillingness or inability to send anything from a Telus.com email and the issue with calling his cell made me suspicious. Is this person legitimate? I am attracted by the deal (which isn’t unreasonably cheap so not an obvious scam) but trying to be cautious.
Door to Door North Burnaby
Hi! Do you currently have canvassers/sales reps going door to door in North Burnaby? I had two guys come to my door asking if my cellphone is with Telus and offered me a promo deal to sign up with Telus because of the recent Rogers network outage on July 8. The sales guy didn't have any Telus gear except his ID and the other fellow was younger male who appears to be a trainee. The sales person left me a full name and a phone number "in case of any questions". Should I be concerned that this is a scam?
