Scam Description
We have a roofing company and are receiving calls, emails, Yelp messages, and now BBB messages where the person claims they are out of county and/or disabled. They email us a local address for us to estimate and want us to send them an estimate right away because they want the service right away. This is an example of the email send:
Thank you for your prompt response.
I would have loved to give you a call immediately but I want to let you know that am just reciprocating from diagnosis of cancer of the lungs, all I can do right now is email, perhaps text.
Having said, here is my address which I would like you to give me the estimate of the roof replacement : **** ******** *** *********** ** *****.
Since Better Business Bureau recommended you, I have no doubt within me that you’ll send me a reasonable price and material quotes ASAP.
Will await the quotations ASAP.
Many thanks,
Donna
