Description

I was looking for a lawn dethatching company in my area. Www.powellandsons.com came up on Google as a company in my area. I entered my name, address, phone and email to get a free quote. There was no contact number for the company. I immediately received two phishing texts from “PayPal” which I reported to PayPal and also a phone call from Angi @ 517-376-3779 Obvious scam to me since these things happened and no quote was ever given.
