Beware of Contractor Scams

DON'T BE THE VICTIM OF CONTRACTOR SCAMS!

Natural disasters and severe weather can create opportunities for fraud in their wake, occurring at a time when people may be especially vulnerable, or targeting charitable intentions.

Scammers use phone, text, mail, email, and even go door to door to target residents of affected areas following hurricanes and damaging storms.  Be sure to do research on a contractor you are selecting.
