Spring is just around the corner but the home improvement scammers have already hit the area. The BBB is issuing a warning to home owners about a man and a woman knocking on doors claiming to repair roofs for only $69 or other repairs. Once the repairs are completed the contactor then demands payment for 40 gallons of roof coating at $69 or other large amount. The homeowner later learns the coating is of little or no value.
The suspects are described as a heavy set male, and a thin build female. The couple are driving a late model silver 4-Door Chevrolet Pickup with a large black tank mounted just behind the cab. If you have been contacted by these suspects or anyone with info please contact the Abilene Police Department at 672-8331. You can also contact the BBB at info@abilene.bbb.org.
