Does this sound suspicous?

Tuesday night my mom and brother were coming back from my brother's job. This two guys ring the doorbell. My mom and brother were coming around the front so they talked to the doorbell ringers. They said their car broke down and it would be parked out front overnight. No big deal.

Yesterday, the doorbell rang again around 6:00 pm and it was the exact same guys whose car broke down. My mom didn't answer the door. They knocked a couple of times too when no one answered.

So about 3 minutes ago I'm up on my computer. Doorbell rings, knocking, doorbell rings, knocking. I didn't check who it was but it sounded like them.

What would make two people even if their car broke down ring and knock for 3 nights in a row getting an hour earlier everytime?

So, suspicious or am I paranoid?

I don't get why they keep knocking though, they can always leave a jello mold as thanks, hehe. On a serious note, you've done the right thing, don't open the door.  
Date: 4/20/2006 3:55:00 PM  From Authorid: 53052    yah three nights in a row seems odd...  
Date: 4/20/2006 4:10:00 PM  From Authorid: 30747    I dunno. I think I would have asked through the door what they wanted and put that queston a little more to rest. Maybe something happened to their car while it was there that night and they wanted to ask if you had seen anything suspicious. Could be a lot of reasons really. Must of been important to be there 3 nights. I would think if they wanted to rip you off they wouldn't be so obvioius but I'm just guessing so take care.  
Date: 4/20/2006 4:20:00 PM  From Authorid: 53961    Is the car still there or did they move it?  
Date: 4/20/2006 4:24:00 PM  From Authorid: 15394    sounds like they are trying to figure out when you all are home ... if that was them again at the door...hmmm  
Date: 4/20/2006 4:26:00 PM  From Authorid: 13729    Suspicious........  
Date: 4/20/2006 4:33:00 PM  From Authorid: 37872    If it seems suspicious, probably is. Call the cops give a description, let them take a description of the car. If it's no harm intended then, no one gets hurt. Better to be safe then sorry.  
Date: 4/20/2006 4:54:00 PM  From Authorid: 43015    I agree with Jungabel..It sounds like they're trying to figure out when you guys are home or something..  
Date: 4/20/2006 4:55:00 PM  From Authorid: 50249    It is suspicious. Don't you ever, EVER open the door. Be careful, take care and God bless you.  
Date: 4/20/2006 5:22:00 PM  From Authorid: 63040    maybe they needed help or maybe theyre "scouting" your place to see ur schedules  
Date: 4/20/2006 5:59:00 PM  From Authorid: 44237    Sounds very suspicious, but yes I am paranoid but don't answer the door and if they come around again just call the police maybe they will get the message. You can't be too careful now days.
Peace and love,
Kathy
  
Date: 4/20/2006 6:02:00 PM  From Authorid: 44237    Yeah, Souldrifter is right maybe you should ask thru the door at least that would let them know someone is home so if they are planning to rob your house then that would ward them off.  
Date: 4/20/2006 6:09:00 PM  From Authorid: 14314    I agree with SoulDrifter. Take Care and God Bless  
Date: 4/20/2006 6:44:00 PM  From Authorid: 62826    Very suspicious. I would call the police and let them know what is going on. I recently saw a program on "Home Invasion" which told stories of how person(s) would come to your door with reasons like needing to use the phone because the car is broke down or maybe lost. Just be very careful. Like someone else said they may be checking out your times at home.

Date: 4/20/2006 6:54:00 PM  From Authorid: 16671    Sounds like a set up to me, ya know caseing the place.  
Date: 4/20/2006 6:57:00 PM  From Authorid: 16845    If the show up again...peak out to make sure it's them, then call the police.  
Date: 4/20/2006 8:30:00 PM  From Authorid: 28071    id get their licenese plate number, and have the car towed away David/Fearfactor  
Date: 4/20/2006 8:32:00 PM  From Authorid: 62679    It sounds like the scene from Mothman Prophecies lol  
Date: 4/20/2006 9:08:00 PM  From Authorid: 63202    I would be a bit concerned. Many times the broken down car routine is an attempt to scope a place out, trying to decide when someone is and is not at home, when certain family members are alone, etc. If they come knocking again, I would put a call into the police and let them have a chat with these fellows. Couldn't hurt.
Date: 4/20/2006 9:54:00 PM  From Authorid: 11348    That would make me kind of uneasy too. There could be a lot of good reasons for them to knock on the door, but to be safe, don't open the door and hopefully they'll get the hint and go away.  
Date: 1/7/2007 10:03:00 AM  From Authorid: 53558    I do hope you got it sorted out..  
Date: 1/7/2007 10:10:00 AM  From Authorid: 64365    In this day and age, it's good to have your guard up. You can never be too careful. Thanks for sharing, Nani
