I was listening to the news this morning, and I found it kind of unusual when I heard the a single story.
They started their story by saying, be on the lookout for a fake Heating & Air Conditioning business.
Apparently this person had stolen the Heating & Air Conditioning businesss ID and ran away. He was wanted by the police for not just stealing from the Heating & Air Conditioning Tech, however for injuring him while I was in the attack. Made me wonder what the person was running from, that he felt an Heating & Air Conditioning identity would protect him. They provided no description of the man, and nothing to make him remarkable enough to even investigate whether he was a real business or not. So, when a Heating & Air Conditioning Tech came into our office the next morning, I did not think to look at them twice. I figured he had been sent there by the local Heating & Air Conditioning company. He went right to the furnace room, and started doing work. When he was done, he handed the bill to the receptionist and asked for his pay. The amount he requested wasn’t anything remarkable, and she paid him out of petty cash. About an minute later, another Heating & Air Conditioning Tech came into the building. He showed us his ID and explained that he was there to work on the furnace. The receptionist looked at me and asked what she should do? I told her to have the Heating & Air Conditioning Tech sit still until both of us could get someone from his company there to identify him. Didn’t take long to find out that he was the real Heating & Air Conditioning Tech and the person who repaired our furnace was the fake a single. The fake will service the furnace, even though he also walked away with the money that both of us paid him.
