My folks got hit in exactly the same way a few years back. Saleswoman made an appointment for a free water test and proceeded to scare the daylights out of them in trying to sell them a water filtration system.
Thing is, we have _excellent_ water here in Melbourne. Maybe not very much of it, but what there is is really good.
Those salesmen lie and exaggerate for a living. 10 years ago the same woman would have been selling knives, and 15 years go cosmetics.
