I am not a scared person when it comes to strangers though.

We have to have a landline for our alarm but I don't even know what the number is so I know that no one calling it actually wants me. The last time I picked it up it was a crazy lady who wanted me to tell her husband that she didn't have an affair with a man named Sam. I haven't made that mistake again! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-answer-the-door-bell#post-642382 Thu, 14 Mar 2013 20:20:45 +0000 chopsuey 642382@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We don't have a doorbell at our new place.

Their plan is to go to the door and act like a salesman, or that their car is broke down and they need help and they either a. rob you b. look around your home (from what they can see from the door) to get an idea of what they want for next time.
