Escambia County Officials Warn Of Door To Door Scam

December 5, 2015

Escambia County officials are warning residents of a door-to-door scam.

The Escambia County Emergency Communications Center has received multiple reports of a man wearing an Escambia County Fire Rescue t-shirt going door-to-door trying to solicit contributions. The complaints that have come from areas near East Nine Mile Road and Guidy Lane.

All funding comes from the Escambia County Board of County Commissioner’s Municipal Services Benefit Unit, and the county does not solicit public funds. Under no circumstances does Escambia County Fire Rescue administer any door-to-door soliciting, according to county officials.

    I say we respond with a door-to-door slam.

    This goes on every year. Last person that tried this on me had a Alabama tag.

    They once came to my door and told me they had “assessed” my property for the annual fee of $59. I told them to get lost. Later I saw them at Ryan’s counting their take. It was an impressive pile of money.
