Nutrition Smarts /Courtney

The scam: Swindlers posing as water company

officials invite themselves into private homes to

check out the water supply & fixtures. They tell

victims they need to buy water purifiers, which

they just happen to have in stock & then press for

an instant purchase. Water company officials car-

ry photo ID & use only official vehicles. If in

doubt, call the water company. And don’t let

people pressure you into making purchases with

high pressure sales tactics.
