I was watching a channel I sometimes watch and the fellow was visited by two "security" professionals.
Said the guy would get 3 grand worth of free security hardware, just for having one of their lawn signs. FREE equipment, FREE Service, FREE lifetime Warranty, FREE tech Upgrades. The guy specifically said it was at no cost. BUT, at the end, announces that it will cost $65.00 a month for monitoring! When the prospective customer asked if he still gets the stuff if he doesn't want monitoring, the sales guys said, "what, do you think we are gonna give you three grand worth of stuff?". Glad the sales people wasted their time.
Just plain DISHONEST SCUM! Makes me embarrased to be part of that industry.
