I mean unless you were the victim of a tornado and "at your door" really means "at your tent flap in the emergency encampment sponsored by the Red Cross"? Answer: no, you haven't. Ever. So don't think that this time they will. No one *should* need an e-mail from a friend or a post on the internet to know this, ffs.

The sad thing isn't that there are people who would pretend to be with the Red Cross to gain access to your stuff. The sad thing is there a grown-azz adults, presumably of at least moderate intelligence, who will fall for it.
You misread what the warning says. It says that Law Enforcement and the Red Cross are warning folks that "people" are going door to door.......etc., etc. Please re-read my original post. Thanks.
