The sad news is that scammers try to take advantage of residents who've already suffered.

With strong winds knocking down some trees and a lot of branches and limbs, cleanup efforts are getting underway. And with that, there are those who would look to take advantage of the situation. 

Michigan Attorney General Dana Nessel says clean-up scams and charity scams pop up in situations like this, and try to prey on people’s needs or desires to help. Visit the AG's website SCAMS for more information.
