I got a letter from them in the mail today - don't fall for this, it's NOT official! It's some company trying to sell you water filters or something similar. There should be a law against bogus "official notices" like this.

It's not exactly a scam - but close. It is supposed be be a "water test" but it turns out to be a hard and high pressure sell for a whole house water filter system at vastly inflated prices. The "water test" is fake and just a way to get their foot in your door. Comparison shop is you want a water filter system and don't be pressured into making an immediate decision to spend thousands.

We got one of these yesterday as well.

Another reason consumers should be able to opt out of all third class/ bulk mailings.

Like many things bad, lobbies control these things.

It apprears, Usps has a free service that gives you a pic of your 1st class mail. Could eliminate most trips to mailbox.
