Scam Description
Received an oversized, non-colored, postcard-like mailing from the NRIA claiming “Property owners in your area qualify for a free program administered by the National Residential Improvement Association.” This prompted my elderly father to fill out an application to see if he qualifies for “free home improvements.” This paper looks very realistic at first glance and I did not know it was a scam until researching the internet. They have a legitimate website as well that does not appear suspicious.
