When the guy came by pushing the GE system, I mentioned the story to him and he said these TV reports were fabrications put out by their competitors.   When I asked if he had the proper city permits to sell things door to door, he showed me his ID badge... not his permit.    I think it was a scam.

If they were selling an alarm system they dont need a city permit they do need to be licensed through the state and should have their license avaialble to show you.
