Scummy Scammer Neighbor Has Kids Shovel Woman's Driveway Without Asking, Demands Payment

A group of kids shows up on your front steps demanding an extorted contribution under coercion. What is this? The local mafia or something? 

When u/beaversm26 heard a knock on her door while she was working from home she opened it to find a group of expectant neighborhood kids. They told her, to her surprise, that they had just shoveled her driveway. Promptly asking her for payment to the tune of $15 each for the 4 of them. 

u/beaversm26 was stunned. She hadn't requested or approved the shoveling and felt that the cost was rather high. Plus, she and her husband had just shoveled the drive last night. So the only thing they could have shoveled was whatever had fallen overnight.

She declined payment, which summoned the second stage of the boss fight in the form of the children's mother descending in her insolent fury.

Imagine doing a job without being asked and then demanding payment for it. Maybe just ask first? Typically when a cute group of kids offers to do something for you like shovel snow or mow your lawn you're more than happy to let them do it for whatever fee they're charging.

When asking is such a reasonable thing to expect and so easy to do it's hard to see this scenario as anything other than scammer behavior and this mother is clearly teaching the kids a masterclass in it.
