Scams - Fall River, MA - The Herald News

It used to be a scammer would come to your home, usually dressed as some type of a repairman (i.e., plumber, roofer), and tell you it will cost thousands of dollars to do the repairs, but you would have to pay some money upfront. These scammers were eventually thwarted once the news media in television and printed newspaper go the word out to the public. It was a small victory to put a stop to it, but a victory nonetheless.
