"Operation Stow Biz" busts bogus moving

If you’re moving anytime soon, please be careful. There is a lot of criminals in this industry that will steal your stuff. An estimator may show up at your home to give you a written estimate. They may be well spoken, kind, dressed well and they may have come highly recommended. But as soon as the truck drives off, it can never be seen again. The FBI recently broke up a criminal ring through a sting operation known as “Operation Stow Biz.” A total of 16 companies were stealing goods or holding items hostage until the owners paid them off. So, remember to hire only legitimate movers. Go to moving.org to find a company in your state.
