In order to
assist homeowners in guarding against fraudulent
contractors and to educate homeowners on how to use the
complaint process if they believe they are a victim of
fraud, we offer the following informational links:
A
direct link to the NYS Consumer Protection Board Web
Site that is focused on what to do if you believe you
have been a victim of fraud and also provides tips on
how to avoid becoming a victim. There is also a
toll free phone number,
1-800-NYS-1220, to contact the office with your
questions.
A direct
link to The Federal Trade Commission Web Site that
focuses on how The Federal Trade Commission enforces
Federal antitrust and consumer protection laws.
This site
permits users to file complaints and search for prior
complaints of online fraud and scams in respect of any
person or company conducting online business.
