Don't Get Scammed!
More important updates to come this morning!
Following recent severe storm damage in Rocky Ripple, residents are advised to guard against fraudulent contractors and door-to-door "storm chasers."
Scammers often target affected homeowners by offering immediate repairs or insurance assistance, demanding upfront payment, and vanishing without completing work.
Tips for Residents:
- Verify contractor licensing, insurance, and references before hiring.
- Get multiple written estimates and avoid paying full costs upfront.
- Watch out for neighbors, especially seniors, who may be targeted.
To report suspected scams or file a complaint, contact the Indiana Attorney General’s Consumer Protection Division at 1-800-382-5516 or visit indianaconsumer.com.
