Beware of Driveway Scams: NRP

Police say criminals may appear pushy, leaving work half done

A warning from NRP to be mindful of scammers attempting to pave your driveway.

Police say winter can wreak havoc on concrete on various parts of the home, and this is where criminals try to take advantage.

They typically go door to door, presenting seemingly competitive quotes, offering a deal, and demanding a substantial cash down payment immediately.

Police say the work may begin quickly, but remains not done, with more pressure for payments, and once that happens, the so-called contractor disappears.

Police add these individuals can appear pushy, with business cards, but with little credibility.
