Scitt West advertused as a contractor who did refurbished homes for Wells Fargo, on Craigslist. He also said he had been a plice officer and his son was a police officer. He came to my home, measured the wood outside of my home and said he needed $947 to repair the rotten wood. He could not take a credit card because he was doing a deal with Mannings Lumber where he could get the Pine wood cheaper if he paid cash. I called Mannings and they said they knew Scott West. So I gave Scott West the $947, but he never returned. I now have found another lady, on disability, which Scott West ripped her off of $1300. Incidentally, he did return to my home to ask for additonal money becaus the wood was more expensive than he had quoted. I said I would be happy to pay him for any additional lumber, but I needed a receipt and I needed him to begin the labor immediately. The gruesome ending: The guy takes money and does not return.
