We all know that there are lots of scams out there, especially targeting the elderly, but this one takes the cake. I hope they capture the bastard.
A scam artist bilked a woman by promising to squirrel-proof her home.
The man told the woman he had seen a squirrel crawl into a plumbing vent atop her home and offered to cap the vent for $40. When he went to the front door later for payment, he said he had capped 100 holes and wanted $4,000. She paid $2,000, authorities said. via The Washington Times
But to be perfectly honest, I have always thought that squirrels were smarter than the average engineer. Have you ever had a bird feeder that was squirrel proof? Yet how many bird feeders make the claim.
That should have been the first tip off, no one can make a house squirrel proof.
