HAGERSTOWN, Md. (AP) -- The Maryland attorney general's office says it is investigating complaints of aggressive sales tactics for home alarm systems in the Hagerstown area.
A spokeswoman tells The (Hagerstown) Herald-Mail the agency is investigating two complaints about representatives from Apx Alarm Security Systems of Provo, Utah.
One complaint was from a Hagerstown woman who says an Apx salesman refused to leave her home until she signed a five-year contract worth $2,300. She says Apx then refused her request to cancel the deal.
Washington County Sheriff Douglas Mullendore says others have complained that Apx salesmen entered their homes uninvited.
The company hasn't immediately responded to inquiries from the newspaper and The Associated Press.
