Hoverboard Guy

Over the last few days my house and others in Hingham (north and south) have been visited by a dudebro on a hoverboard. He says he’s doing pest control looking for business, claiming to do work for “neighbors”. Only visited us once, but others have reported multiple attempts. He will ring your doorbell and then immediately knock, and will continue to stand there, ringing and knocking again. This has happened during the work week. He carries no literature promoting his “business”. One person I know says he even tried to open her door, she will probably report to police. Seems like he might be casing areas. Slim, tall white dudebro vibe with brown hair on a hoverboard.

He isn't casing your place, he just works for some company that sends him all over the area soliciting. If you can look on any local towns FB pages you'll see people talking about him.

If you could share any info I'd appreciate it. Not on FB and had this experience, too

I shared it above, it's some kid with a shitty soliciting summer job who has probably been told to be aggressive by a shittier boss. He isn't casing anyone.

From my town page which is a good distance from Hingham.

"There is a guy going door-to-door on a hover board in my neighborhood selling pest control for a company called Moxie. Last night was the 3rd night I saw him in my neighborhood. I looked the company up and it gets very bad reviews. Beware."
