A Calgary homeowner is breathing better after a frightening experience when a fake furnace and duct cleaning company showed up at her door.

WATCH: A Calgary woman was shocked and frightened to find out she had opened her door and her home to two strangers pretending to be from a local, well-known furnace cleaning company. As Tomasia DaSilva reports, the real company owner came forward to help.

“Every time I came in a room where they were, they just kind of looked over their shoulder at me — like I caught them doing something,” she told Global News. “I know it’s not criminal what they did, but to me, it’s the same as break and enter. They lied about who they are. They’re in her house and she was freaked out. It’s not OK. They’re doing this to people, they’re doing this to seniors — just for a few bucks.”Bhanji said it’s not the first time his company has been impersonated. He added fake ads from fake furnace and duct cleaning companies posted on social media are rampant.
