SAN ANTONIO Scammers are taking advantage of COVID-19 fears and tricking some San Antonio homeowners into installing expensive water filtration systems. When the women went to the Better Business Bureau and WQA websites, she realized the company wasn't affiliated with either organization. The woman called both organizations, but by the time she heard back, the company had already started installing the water system. "(The salesman) actually told me that he'll remove the system if I remove the complaint off of (the Better Business Bureau website). Anyone who has been a victim of scammers is asked to report the incident to the Attorney Generals Office, the Better Business Bureau and WQA.

SAN ANTONIO Some companies are fooling San Antonio homeowners into installing expensive water filtration systems that they falsely say can stop the spread of the coronavirus, according to the Water Quality Association.

She said she called both organizations, but by the time she heard back, the company had already started installing the water system. We have some cases (where salespeople) actually go door to door saying theyre from the Water Quality Association.
