I was in a pizza shop last week eating lunch when a fellow came up to me and asked me if I spoke Spanish. I replied that I did not. He then handed me this flier and in English told me he was representing a drug and alcohol treatment program and asked if I would donate money to the cause in return for a T-shirt bearing the logo of the place. Now, soliciting inside eating establishments was the first shady sign. The second shady sign was the fact that this alleged drug treatment center is in Corona and the pizza shop I was dining in was in Manhattan. So when I got home, I looked up the address and phone number. 
The address belongs to a residence and the phone is connected to something called "Jovenes 24 Hrs AD Inc." which appears nowhere on the flier.Draw your own conclusions.
