Beware of Scams Targeting Seniors!
The Government of Ontario recently launched new energy efficiency rebate programs, but scammers are already taking advantage of this initiative. Predatory companies are contacting homeowners, especially seniors, claiming they can help with rebate applications and payments. This is a scam!
To protect yourself:
– Don’t answer unsolicited calls or allow door-to-door salespeople into your home.
– Verify program information through official websites.
– Report suspicious activity to local authorities or consumer protection agencies.
