Please be aware of this scam artist who came to our house last night in the Oak Grove Neighborhood of Decatur...


 
We were visited last night by a seemingly genuine well-cut kid (~18yrs old) who was
selling books so he could fund a trip with his under 18 soccer team to England.  Said he lived in the neighborhood, Oak Grove, and lived on Waterford.  We offered to buy some of his books and he kept talking up a good story. 
Well, after we finally parted, we bacame more suspicious, especially after he said he was 19 years old as he left down the street (he was supposed to be playing soccer for an under 18 team).  We googled his name and the company we wrote the check to:  "Barry Johann of Prestige Sales" and bingo he came up as a scam artist!
We immediately put a stop payment on our check and we want to alert everyone that this guy is out there and to be aware!
 
This guy is slick and a great salesman!
