The Berrien County Sheriff’s Department is warning about a door-to-door scam that’s been reported in Sodus, Watervliet, and New Buffalo townships. They involve three Hispanic men and 1 White man in a Ford F-350 white truck showing up to homes and offering the homeowner concrete, asphalt, or another home repair service. The sheriff’s department says it’s all fake. The scammers are just trying to get the homeowner to leave the house and be distracted while one or more of them slip in and steal things. The sheriff’s department notes this can all happen in a matter of seconds. If the scammers show up to your house, police say you should not open the door and instead call the sheriff’s department.
