We have one of those no hawker stickers by the front door. Doesn't stop some people chancing their arm. A polite no thanks and a quick door slam gets the message across

Please don’t ask to see my tatts 👍
20 years ago when my lad played kids football, one of the other kids dads did door to door selling. He openly admitted scamming people and made a fortune. He never even batted an eyelid about it. Used to drive to the other end of the country staying overnight in hotels.

Had one at our door a couple of months ago. Turned very nasty when I said "no thanks". Started calling me all sorts, and when I told him to beat it or I would call the cops, he told me I was a "f... grass"! Missus came out to see what all the noise was about and she got a mouthful too before he went on his way. I did call the police on 101 as we've got a lot of pensioners on their own round here, asked them to come round to chase them off, they never showed up ...

Read on a local site that round here they now try to pass the selves off as we servicemen now. Same con.
