Thanks to Ari Dorfman of South Florida Inventory Specialists (a legitimate home inventory service business) for this alert of a scam targeting prospective Home Inventory Service business owners.
Ari reports that a company is advertising in newspapers about a start-up opportunity for running a home inventory business. They ask for a check or money order for between $750 and $1500 and they will "send you everything you need to get started, schedule training and start to book you clients."
Ari says, "They have used the name Capital Home Inventory. Florida Inventory Specialists, and others. They are usually based somewhere along the east coast of Florida, but advertise in Dallas and New Jersey for sure. They have used the names Rick Miller and Tom McEntrye and also use a female named Erin or Kathy."
Buyers beware! There are a few legitimate franchise or "business in a box" opportunities available for starting your Home Inventory Service business, but check them out carefully before purchasing. And always pay with a credit card, so you can dispute the charges, if need be.
