The caller seemed like a nice person who might not have understood yet that she was working for a bunch of crooks. She said they were doing some stucco work at the nearby elementary school and would be in the neighborhood tomorrow to do estimates. When asked, she said the company name was SC Remodelers.
She said they were reputable and I could look them up on the BB. I said I'd need the address to check with the BBB. She said she didn't have the address but they'd give that to me when they came to the house. I explained that I wanted to check them out before letting strangers into the house. She said, "I understand."
Then I asked for the contractor's license number. She didn't have that either but said she could give me the phone number. I asked for it and she said she'd have to check to get that for me. Silence for a while and then the line went dead.
I hope she finds a better job soon. She might be working for the following outfit: https://www.indeed.com/cmp/SO-CAL-CONTRACTORS ... Cl2l2Hk901F6iuo
