They make outrageous promises, use bait-and-switch, get signatures on a tablet that are then applied to predatory contracts, use fake emails to prevent customers from viewing contracts, put contracts in the name of someone else where the consumer is credit challenged, and even forge contracts. This webinar is for anyone who wishes to learn how to bring claims against fraudulent sellers and build a strong case. No previous experience with solar fraud issues required.
