A troubling investigation in Friday’s Journal de Montréal exposes a door-to-door scam affecting homeowners across Quebec. The article reveals that a Laval-based company called Protection Isolation used fake photos of mould to scare people into signing expensive decontamination and insulation contracts. The Office de la protection du consommateur received more than 80 complaints, the company was fined nearly $30,000, and its construction licence has been revoked.
