These scams having been running for years. I've had them calling at the door, usually around teatime, on and off for as long as I can remember. Not a legitimate scheme - why would any official programme have vulnerable people selling door-to-door, even as 'work experience'?

I've heard (can't remember where) that the young people doing the selling are often in hoc to the criminals running these scams and keep very little of the money themselves.
