The Kansas State University theater program is asking people to call the Riley County Police Department if they are contacted about buying magazines from individuals posing as K-State theater students.

"We have received several calls from people who said they were approached at their homes by individuals posing as theater students. K-State Theater does not solicit funds door-to-door, nor do we ask for cash or for checks made out to individuals," said Marci Maullar, managing director of K-State Theater.

Maullar said the theater program has had calls about the magazine sales from people in Manhattan, Emporia, McPherson and Lawrence, who said they were told the funds raised would support a trip to London or would be used to support the troops.

Mauller said anyone asked to buy magazines from individuals claiming to be K-State theater students should contact the Riley County Police Department at 785-537-2112.
