John McClure and Sarah Chambers allegedly defrauded more than a dozen upstate homeowners out of over $1500000. According to NY-AG, McClure solicited large amounts of deposit funds upfront for home improvement work but failed to perform the work, neglected to deliver materials, and refused to issue refunds to homeowners for unfinished work when requested. Chambers participated in the scheme by serving as a false reference and filing business certificates in order to open business bank accounts to receive homeowner funds.
