BEWARE SNOW SHOVELLING SCAM
Its been snowing in the UK again and I wanted to warn you of this latest scam.
As you know I'm between jobs at the moment, and spending a bit of time at home.
You should be on the lookout for this pair in case they appear in your area.
They showed up offering to shovel snow from my driveway for £10. Not ten minutes into the job they were at my door complaining about being cold.
They said they wanted to come in to my house and get warm for a while.
Well, three hours later, they ended up leaving without finishing the
driveway.
I didn't get anything done around the house because I was afraid
to take my eyes off of them.
I'm just glad my wife wasn't at home to see me
taken in by this 'scam'. I would never hear the end of it.
Don't let this happen to you!
Fortunately, I took their picture before they left. If these two appear on your doorstep, don't say you weren't warned!
