Consumer Protection has contacted all Wisconsin city and village clerks about complaints concerning door-to-door sellers of home alarm systems. Superior and a number of other municipalities are denying sales permits to these companies. The Superior Police Department arrested two sellers and issued a press release advising:
-Be cautious of letting any stranger enter your home for any reason.
-To ask for company or organization identification.
-Request to see a Direct Sellers Permit issued by the City of Superior.
-Not give out personal data such as Social Security or bank account numbers to anyone that you did not initiate the contact with.
-To not sign any forms when you feel you’re being pressured or intimidated.
-To report any suspicious activity to the police by calling 911 immediately.
-If the person leaves, gather information such as vehicle description or license numbers for the officer.
