ATLANTA – Attorney General Chris Carr is warning Georgia residents to be on the lookout for possible price gouging and storm-related scams in the wake of Hurricane Idalia.
“As we continue to pray for the families and communities in the path of Hurricane Idalia, we want to remind all Georgians of the important steps they can take to protect themselves from home repair fraud and other schemes,” Carr said in a news release. “Con artists will try to take advantage of those impacted by severe weather. We know this is a difficult time for many, and our office stands ready to assist any consumer who thinks they have encountered a potential scam.”
