Hey all, aside from staying safe in the hurricane weather and all, please be mindful of utility worker impostors. Basically they come to your door posing as someone you wouldn't think twice about and will then come into your home and rob you at gunpoint, or take down personal information and/or take note of your belongings and address so they can come back later after things have passed. They do this knowing that emergency services are stretched very thin and can easily get away with it.
DO NOT open your door for any utility or service worker until you have verified 100% that they are who they say they are. DO NOT let them into your home for any reason. Real utility workers will have NO REASON to go into your home.
Please do me a favour and call your families and friends in the area and let them know about all of this and be very wary. All kinds of crazy things like this went down during and in the aftermath of Katrina.
Be safe, everyone.
Thank you to lei-lani for the heads up (who also got her information from another). Either way, pass it on.
