Am I overreacting? Maintenance man came in my house without my permission.

adding to this- when i lived in a house, i've had many random people ring my doorbell (likely to scope out if anyone is home). one time i opened the door without checking the viewer, and they came up with an excuse that they're answering an ad to rent a room then quickly left when i said wrong addre

Knocking on my door at 3:14 AM

Ring doorbell (or a cheaper one will work perfectly fine). You can get a Blink video door bell for $29.99 and a no drill mount (if that's a problem since your in an apartment) for $9.99-16.99. I do contract work as a private investigator. Thats the easiest one. You can get all types of hidden ones f

FYI: Ring has partnered with Flock. Ice has access to flock. We are under mass surveillance.

Ring is owned by amazon, also Blink is owned by amazon, if they are sharing ring doorbell footage then they sure as hell are sharing blink doorbell footage aswell

Need serious insight

100% agree …..I’m the type that wants proof if you tell me something (yes I’m overly suspicious of people), so better to have a ring/blink camera. Like someone said below if a neighbor is vandalizing your peephole you will have proof if they try to do same to the doorbell camera. My neighbor had his

More than 6m vapes and pods discarded weekly in UK despite single-use ban, study finds

I bought one of those blink doorbells off Amazon and it wasn't very well advertised that it had lithium cell and not a rechargeable pack like the ring doorbell. I went to the post office to get the little sticker thing to return it to Amazon and I was told that they couldn't transport it as it had a

Toxic in-laws harassing my wife after LC/NC boundary—now using house sale to force contact. Don’t feel safe at home. Advice needed.

Just block completely. Get a doorbell camera (blink makes one that’s not crazy expensive). If they show up, tell they’re not welcome, you can talk through the camera if you don’t want to answer. If they show up refuse to leave or keep showing up involve the police

Getting robbed or overthinking?

Report to your leasing office/landlord for sure, even if it’s nothing. And as others have stated, get a video doorbell if you can. We have a blink with a metal arm that goes around the door. Not fully impossible to tamper with, but you have to have the right teeny tiny screwdriver to undo the camera
