HAMILTON, ON - The City of Hamilton is asking residents to exercise caution if they are approached by unsolicited private contractors or representatives who claim to be affiliated with the City or speak about City services. A homeowner recently reported being approached by an individual who was pretending to work for the City under the guise of replacing lead pipes or water service lines. As part of the sales pitch for lead-free pipes, the person claimed the homeowner would be eligible for a grant if they provided a void cheque or banking information.
