EAST WINDSOR, Conn. — Two men attempted to scam a senior citizen after claiming to work for the Town of East Windsor.
East Windsor Police warned citizens of this scam on their Facebook page.
The senior citizen said two men knocked on her door and she allowed them into her home. The men said she needed her foundation replaced and that it would cost $25,000. When she told them she did not have the money, they offered to do it for $10,000.
The men eventually left and the woman contacted the police.
The men were said to be driving a black pick-up truck.
Police warned community members not to let anyone into their homes unsolicited.
