Damn... my first reaction was why arresting for something like that when the need is there. I wasn't thinking of potential scam artists.
What do you propose would be a solution to mitigate the scammers while addressing the need for the work needed done (well)?
They would have to coordinate through state gov, not just show up claiming to be a professional. These people have done more harm than good to hurricane devastated communities over the years.
