A man burned a $ 2000 hole in his pocket after paying the price of the corridor he left is only a large pile of dirt.
Earlier this month, Viktor Bindaf was contacted from Kinston, North Carolina, by two men in a white truck who said they were ready to pave the parts of the popular corridors in the region for free.

Speaking to WNCT9, Bindaf said: “They have given me a small price like $ 4,500 for everything, for materials, water and everything and everything will take place in a day or two.”
He agreed to pay the men 2,250 dollars in advance, then Bindaf went to open his water pumps but returned to find that they had left, along with the receipt.
Bindaf now looks at a call they suspect will never happen.
“I told her a call, called them, because they left a phone number.
“I called them, but the phone number is not now in the service,” Bendaf said.
A week later, Bendaf says he had not heard of men and since then he was in contact with the local law Enforcing.
He now wants to help others to get into similar situations.
“America is the best country, do you know?” Added Benndaf, who moved to the United States from Ukraine about 25 years ago.
“Peace and freedom. I also do not know in America the bad guys exist. I never thought about it, you know? But they got to me.”
This comes, earlier this month, the owner of another house revealed how he was left in cars using a corridor constantly to wrap – thanks to the Google Maps problem.
Even delivery trucks were wandering because they were mistaken in his own leadership of a public road.
Michael Dryi told the local ABC WSOC that he had left the case for years.
Cars, trucks, and even fast delivery carts pulled the right of his property and even asking him for directives.
A corridor sits in front of another neighborhood and GPS applications continued to redirect drivers through it.
“High frustration. Speed is more frustrated with traffic,” said Drei.
Some drivers set out on the road and did not realize that it was a dead end until they stumbled.
He said that some cars tore their herb and caused damage during rotation.
When drivers realized that there was no late way.
How to avoid the contractor's fraud process
Tips to avoid deception in the corridor, sidewalk, or corridor function:
Just because someone appears at your door wearing a reflective jacket, a solid hat, and work shoes do not mean that they come from a good reputable company.
The deception may tell you that they can do a corridor, corridor, or restriction of a lot of cheaper than the previous contractor who told you, and attractive to home owners who are looking to save thousands of home repairs.
Before writing a check or payment for what appears to be a very good offer so that it is not true, here are some tips to make sure it is not a fraud.
- Get three quotes from three different companies to find out the variation in pricing.
- Do not pay in advance. A company with a good reputation will not take the money in advance, as prices vary depending on the job, and complications can raise the price.
- Request the contractor's license. In many states, if you ask to see their license, contractors are legally obligated to submit it.
- The door sellers avoid the door who say they are in the area are doing. Often, they will take a deposit and never appear.
- Avoid payment by trustee check, cash, or by bank transfer. Paying a credit card is the easiest way to deny it if it is a fraud.
- Keep contact in writing, such as email or text, to help protect you if things need to deal with things legally and a police report is needed.
- Do not feel pressure to make an immediate decision. Sometimes, fraudsters will create a sense of urgency, but it is important to retract a step back and do some research.
