Watch out for 'fly-by-night' contractors
SUMMARY: September is National Preparedness Month, reminding consumers to be cautious of “fly-by-night” contractors who often appear after storms, offering quick repairs for cash upfront but delivering poor or no work. These scammers frequently follow storms into new towns, promising great deals and falsely claiming local connections. The Better Business Bureau advises researching reliable contractors before disasters strike, as post-disaster urgency makes it easy to fall victim. Consumers should also review their insurance coverage to ensure proper protection. Resources like BBB and Ready.gov offer guides for preparedness, helping individuals plan ahead to avoid scams and make informed decisions during stressful times.
