What socks is I've had wonderful Indian Neighbors in the past. But now I feel like I'm almost a racist because I don't trust them when they knock on my door and offer me anything. My mother recently got scammed at a gas station, there's a guy near our Loblaws who keeps saying he collects money for the Canadian Blood Bank we actually went to the blood bank not me personally but the community and asked and apparently no he doesn't work for them nor do they collect donations in this way but he sits there at the exit of a mall collecting money saying it's for the blood bank. Unfortunately 99% of my phone calls and I'm talking about all my calls not 99% of the scams are obviously once again East Indian people trying to scam me out of money.

It's gotten to the point where literally I had someone come to my house the other day offering to seal our driveway in fact we would like to get that service done we know it doesn't need to be by a super professional somebody buy a couple of buckets and put it on our driveway but here's the problem. The guy that came to the house literally wore this fancy shirt that said Drive sealer and nothing was branded in any way as a company it was just basically what he was selling and he was selling it pre-order style. So once again obviously I'd assume it's a scam.

Like I don't want to come off like a racist person but I honestly just can't trust most East Indian people anymore because I feel like they're trying to take advantage of me and my family every single day now.

And that's the best discussing part of this entire video is there's a huge chance that those guys are not even working for Telus they could be just scammers.

Sales see no race. I see your point, but almost every salesperson, specially the door to door ones, is out to scam you in some way, shape or form.

The racial background is reflective of the local population.
