An African-American woman came to my door today with a moving story about donating books to children in need. She gave me the spiel about her child having learning disabilities, presented a "catalog" of books that children would love (I certainly loved a few of them, at least), and jammed a sieve under my bleeding heart. Essentially, I fell for this absolute SCAM, and roped my sister into it too. Thankfully, SHE used the brain God gave her and looked this organization up almost immediately after the woman left the door. Sure enough, that lady was peddling a kettle of lies and we had jump through a ton of hoops to prevent the account hacking that was sure to occur (used our credit cards for this. Poor move). If you fell for this scam and happened to use your card, IMMEDIATELY go into your account, change your username and password, and report this security issue with whatever bank or credit card company that card is tied to. Because this transaction was so fresh, my sister and I were able to head it off at the pass before it went through and we'll get new cards in a couple days. All in all, it could've been worse, but let this be a warning to anyone who commits a transaction with a door-to-door salesmen: DO NOT do it unless they have the bargained materials in hand. You'll save yourself a lot of heartache.

A black man and black woman came to my door and got me to “ purchase a book for inner city black kids”. I stupidly fell for it and gave them $28. Got a bogus receipt from them and told I would receive a follow up email which of course never came. After they left I googled them and found out they were a scam. I followed them down the street to my neighbors. When they saw me they started walking fast in my direction shouting “ Black Lives Matter”. They came to my house again and I told them I knew they were a scam. The black woman spewed some nonsense about “anyone can get a negative review on line but it’s only an opinion”. At this point I just wanted this duo to scram and did not want any future retaliation so I pretended to concede. It’s obvious what is going on here. They know white people, for fear of being though racist, will bend to them. Never again!

The rep came to my door offering sales of children's books. She seemed polite, and not threatening in any way. I just now realized I never received my order that I was hoping to get for Xmas for my granddaughters. After some research I see now, my good nature and hospitality was taken advantage of. So disappointing and frustrating that I was taken in so easily. This was in October 2020.

An individual from New Leef Marketing came to my door to sell me books as part of a mentorship program. Their sales receipt is fake and their website is questionable at best.

Door to door reg Brenda Johnson was very nice and personable and talked about the company helping build self esteem to black women. She gave me a tablet and had the website pulled up. The sale was to purchase a book to be donated to a school in Indiana. I asked why she was doing this in Ohio why the books weren't being donated to Ohio schools and she said Covid is preventing that. I had a 20$ bill on me so I gave her the money and she provided me with a receipt.

After I left I realized I may have been scammed into something so I did some digging on Facebook and Google and they don't seem to be legit. Dayton Children's Hospital cited them as a scam.

A representative from New Leaf Marketing showed up at our house uninvited claiming to be in a mentorship program learning professional skills, networking, etc. then proceeded to ask for a donation for books. Many neighbors have had similar experiences with this organization but provided credit card numbers and have been hacked. The person was NOT wearing a mask.
