A man calling himself Paul actually showed up at my house. He knocked on my door and asked to speak to someone with my name but there are two people, myself and my father, who have the same name that live in the house.
Because my father and I have the same name we are used to never confirming we are the person anyone is asking for until they identify who they are and why they are bothering us.
Normally this happens over the phone but this is the first time someone has showed up at our front door asking for one of us. I asked the man repeatedly why he was knocking on our door and all he would say is "I need to speak to Michael".
When I asked him to identify himself all he would say was his name was Paul. He would not say what company he is with or why he was knocking on our door.
Before I was able to answer the door he had already stuck a piece of paper in the door with his first name Paul, and it listed his phone number demanding "Michael" call him. (He did use our last name but I am obviously not posting that for privacy.
So I waited about an hour and call the number Paul left on the piece of paper. The same man answered and again refused to say who he was or why he wanted to speak with "Michael". I again refused to confirm that I was the person he was looking for because I have no way to know if he was looking for me or my father.
I had explained this to him in person and again over the phone and he again refused to say anything else. So I advised him to not come to our home again and that I would be reporting the incident to the Las Vegas Metro Police Department.
He responded with "go ahead, they know who I am and will back me up". Well turns out that is not true. I called the Police and was advised to go to the station to fill out a report because I felt harassed and threatened by his visit to my home.
I told the police on the phone and in person that this guy told me that he was known by the police and that they would verify who he is but no one I spoke to had any idea who he was.
I have since filed a report and the police have advised me to call 911 if he shows up again and to not answer my door. I had found this web site before going to the police station and made sure to include the information from here about Paul's history or harassing people.
