April 14, 2008 - A message from your Neighborhood Watch:
Loudoun County, Virginia- The Sheriff’s Office is asking
residents to be wary of workers going door to door in neighborhoods
offering to resurface driveways, work on roofs or complete other
work “for great prices.”
The workers, sometimes referred to as Travelers, will complete the
work and then request payment that is substantially higher then what
was originally quoted. They will often use intimidation on the
victims to get their money. The Travelers may also use another
method, burglarizing a home and stealing cash, jewelry and/or silver
The Sheriff’s Office Criminal Investigations Unit recently received
information that a group of travelers may be in the area. The agency
has yet to receive any recent reports of these types of scams this
year.
If you think you may have been a victim of the Travelers or if you
have any information regarding the group, please call Investigator
T. Ortwein of the Sheriff’s Office Criminal Investigations Division
at 703-777-0475.
