Tyler Police Warn of Scam

TYLER — Tyler police warn about a scam. KETK reports a man claiming to work for the city has been offering tree trimming services to the elderly. Halfway through the job, he asks for payment. He says the city will pick up the tree limb and he will return the next day. But victims say he never comes back — and the city does not pick up tree limbs free of charge. The city is asking for anyone affected by this scam to call police.
