The Better Business Bureau, or BBB, is warning of scam calls and more ahead of the Chicago winter season.

"Just in time to ruin the holidays, clever con artists will attempt to steal your money, identity and personal possessions," said Steve J. Bernas, BBB president and CEO. "Their schemes could even damage your home."

Scammers will offer a variety of services including energy audits, winter insulation offers, snow removing services and furnace inspections this time of year. Illinois utility companies are prohibited from shutting off service during inclement weather so the BBB says to contact your utility company directly if you are concerned about an overdue bill; always call the customer service number on your bill when dealing with any utility company.

Never let anyone inside your home without thoroughly checking their background and discussing it with trusted neighbors or family.
