What is construction fraud?
Construction fraud involves deceit in the performance of construction work, often involving home repairs. Basically, promises are made that are intended to be relied on, and that reliance leads to harm or loss when the promise fails to be fulfilled. In home repair scams, it may involve using substandard supplies or methods of construction. Sometimes, the contractor committing fraud may claim unnecessary work is needed or even create the damage they say needs to be repaired.
