When the Doorbell Becomes a Risk: How Palma Should Better Protect Seniors from Fake Technicians

Answer

How can older people in Mallorca tell if someone at the door is a real technician?

A real technician should usually have a pre-arranged appointment, clear identification, and a way to confirm the visit through the company. If someone arrives unexpectedly and pressures you to act immediately, that is a warning sign. In Mallorca, it is safer to call the company back using an official number before letting anyone in.
