Im a deputy sheriff in the central ca area and yesterday I was dispatched to a neighborhood area regarding door to door salesmen. I contacted two young men that were selling children s books for Dynasty Sales. The pitch is for 55.00 you can buy a children s book set that can either be received by you or sent to under privileged children at hospitals, etc. these young sales people have been coached very well and say they are earning points towards trips in other countries. Other than not having a county permit they are not breaking the law...so far but you will NOT receive any goods, nor will the underprivileged children. I transported the two young men back to our office to be picked up by their supervisor, which is usually in a white or gold ford van. Beware of door to door sales people, make sure they have a county or city permit that they can produce, In addition this is a tool home invasion/burglary suspects use to gain information on your habits, when your home or not etc... Be Smart ! hope this helps...

I just wanted to thank everyone for the heads up regarding Dynasty Sales. A very charming young lady by the name of Nadine came to my door in Westfield, IN (just north of Indy) selling children's books, religious stuff, etc. I was taken in by her charm and placed an order for $40 plus $15 shipping and handling. After she left I decided to check it out online. I don't know why I didn't do so while she was still here! Anyway, I read here that it was all a scam. I jumped in my car to see if I could track her down. I did, and then called the police. Meanwhile she was joined by her two 'co-workers'. They accused my of stalking Nadine and I explained to them that the police were on their way. They walked away, but the police came right then. The police officer talked to them and the result was that they did not have a permit to do soliciting in Westfield. He got my check back too!

So thanks again everyone for posting! Saved me $55 (and some embarrasment of having to tell my wife!!! )

I ordered 5 educational book from a young lady who said she was from our neighborhood and discribed where she lived .She was going to the university and selling books to earn points to study in London. She said that most people who bought the books donated them to the children's hosp. She said that she had sold books to other neighbors so I talked with them and they had not bought any books form that individual I paid $40 for the books plus $15 for shipping and handling. I purchased them on july 28 2009. As of sept 22 I have received only one book. I have to receipts and my cancelled check. there were no phone numbers to call anyone so I wrote to the company and also to the company that sent tthe book MFS fulfillment center og phoenix p.o. box 83450. I have not received any response form them.

Had Daniel Miller come to my door last Tuesday selling books. Said the local soccer team had take 1st place and was now going to Spain (I don't have kids in school so I didn't know either way about this). Told me his parents were paying his way but his Dad wanted him to help fund raise for the rest of the team. Told me where he lived and a distinctive tid bit about his home (which I thought I'd seen) and that maybe I've seen his father jogging with their golden retriever (also thought I'd seen). Fell hook line & sinker - he was smooth. I was leary to begin with so I should of followed my instinct. No such home in the neighborhood so I called the school to see if the soccer team was selling books. Nope!! I reported this to local law enforcement. Tried to send an email to mydynastysales.com but the email wouldn't go through (big suprise). Well I've learned my lesson. However if this would of happened to my mother or my kids who couldn't afford the $ which I spent - I would be really ticked off. Shame on you Dynasty Sales & Daniel Miller (if that's really your name).

Wow! I got taken. I was very cautious and asked many questions and still got taken. It Won't happen again.
