NStar rep comes to my door and wants to see my latest bill?

I told the guy he couldn't see it now, he'd have to come back. He showed me some computer print-out, as if that magically makes everything on the level and I couldn't make that in five minutes with photoshop.

What the F is this nonsense?

That's why I opened the door with a friend on me. No reason for me to be rude.

I'm calling NStar and management for the complex I live in tomorrow. Either it's legit (but wierd) or a scam, and somebody let the dude in.

...and the cops think it's very unusual, as well. I just spoke to them.

I was thinking the same thing.. makes more sense now. Definitely sounds like some sort of scam.

How big was your friend?

Ha. You're way farther North than me. That's why I never heard of them.

What's NStar?
OnStar will not come to your home and definitely would not ask to see your last bill.......
I have had OnStar on and off for the last 11 years and they have never done that.

OnStar would have a really tough time getting my last bill from them

I hope none of them had a giant check and looked like Ed McMahon!
