The response may be considered suspicious

They come to your house out of the blue and try to get you to sign a contract right away, saying that the basic electricity rate will be cut in half.
I said, "Can I have your business card?" They are reluctant to give you their business card, saying, "What are you going to use it for?" and they are reluctant to give it to me.
Everyone, be careful. #GinnyEnergy #APCOGroupJapan pic.twitter.com/8bxc8hicBO
