Type of a scam Home Improvement
This number I’ve answered twice with the same experience. The first time was a week ago. The man at the other end said he was with Minnesota Service and they want to do free roofing inspections because there was a storm recently that had gone through the area and they’re helping people with their insurance claims. He knew my first name and when I said no thanks, he asked if I was still the homeowner at…my address…i said it doesn’t matter because I don’t want the free estimate. He kept Interrupting me and kept giving different times the company could come out and started to be really forceful on the phone. I hung up on him. A week later I started getting calls from a local number. Some time had passed and it didn’t connect that it was the same company. I answered again and received the same type of behavior when I declined the service. I tried looking to company up online, but there is no information that I could find anywhere. It seems like a scam. Especially when they start to get abusive once you decline the offer

I have received two calls from this caller – there is no caller id number or caller id name ( In the state of Minnesota the PUC requires businesses to provide legitimate number and name when making calls).
They asked for the home owner, and I said that they could talk to me. I asked for the number and the caller stated the number so fast I couldn’t write it down.
They called themselves Minnesota Services and were offering a free 15 minute home inspection to see if there had been damage to our home due to the recent storms. Then he narrowed it down to a free roof inspection – I said I wasn’t interested then was asked for how old my roof was, I indicated that it was none of their business. At which point I hung up the phone.
I looked on the internet for such a business and didn’t find it, and checked the ScamPulse.com; also not found.
