There’s another scam making the rounds in the region.
This one has to do with your house.
The OPP have received a number of complaints recently about home repairs.
Home owners are being approached by a door to door sales person offering new windows.
But Police say most legitimate contractors are too busy this time of year to go door to door.
Ask any contractor for references and check their work for yourself.
Also — don’t be pressured into an immediate, limited time sales offer.
Phonebusters reports that repair scams usually target the vulnerable.
If you believe you are a victim of fraud — call the OPP.
