      01/24/2022

      I would like to file a complaint about American Benefit Services and their inappropriate & unprofessional door to door sales tactics. A young man came to our door Friday afternoon asking for me by my first and last name as though he was a friend without communicating who he was or his intentions. My boyfriend told him I wasn't home and asked what he wanted. The young man THEN said he was from American Benefit Services and quickly asked my boyfriend how old I was. He finally tells my boyfriend he worked for my life insurance company, which is untrue. I could hear their interaction from the other room and it made me extremely uncomfortable. I quickly looked up the company under the name he gave us and called the number, based out of Daniel Island. Once speaking to the man on the phone I told him about our uncomfortable interacting with one of his door to door salesman, where he then told me they don't have anyone going door to door. I again explained what had happened and he asked me what the man looked like, then backtracked his story telling me it may have been a new employee of his and apologized for his unprofessional tactics. It is clear that this company has gotten ahold of a list of names and addresses and are going door to door deceivingly trying to sell Medicare / Medicaid but lying throughout the process. After further review it appears they harass others and go door to door in an unprofessional manner regularly. I posted the interaction on a local neighborhood Facebook page where another young woman around my same age in the neighborhood spoke up about the same young man using similar tactics at her front door today. I feel this is extremely unacceptable to make young women feel uncomfortable in their own homes and these tactics are completely unprofessional and uncalled for. Attached it the paper handed to my boyfriend. No business card or name provided
