Expert Opinion
Like a wolf in sheep’s clothing, these unsolicited sales pitches masquerade as reputable retailers. Callers claim to represent stores such as Family Dollar, Dollar General or Harris Teeter and promise in‑store advertising for a fee. The safest move is to verify the identity through official corporate channels before sharing any personal data or payment details. Hang up if the script feels rehearsed, block the number, and log the incident in a spam blocklist or the FTC’s complaint portal. Regularly train staff to recognize the hallmarks of a scam and keep contact information strictly on a need‑to‑know basis.
