Robbinsdale Police warn of possible roofing scam targeting seniors
According to a press release, police have learned of several incidents in which elderly homeowners have been approached by a Caucasian man who calls himself “Tony” and claims that the roof of their home is defective.
According to the police, the suspect claims to work for various roofing companies. After making a verbal agreement to repair the roof and receiving a partial payment, the suspect and his team leave work without completing the work.
“Large areas on the roof that are not protected by a canopy are temporarily left uncovered,” the press release said.
Police recommend anyone calling 911 if someone fitting this description comes to their home trying to request roofing work.
