Highland Fire Department

After severe weather, scammers may target residents needing urgent repairs or assistance. Protect yourself:

• Verify contractors, references, insurance, and credentials.
• Get written estimates and contracts.
• Never pay the full cost upfront or feel pressured to decide immediately.
• Do not share personal, banking, or insurance information with unexpected callers or visitors.
• Be cautious of fake charities, utility representatives, disaster-relief workers, and insurance agents.
• Report suspicious activity to local law enforcement.

Please check on neighbors– especially older adults– and share this warning throughout our community.
