Florida Attorney General Ashley Moody is warning of a potential increase in moving scams as home sales skyrocket.
Moody says one common scam involves packing up and transporting household goods and then refusing to release them until the consumer pays an additional fee.
Another centers around giving a low-ball offer to secure a moving job but then increasing the rate upon arrival and threatening to leave unless the movers are paid up front.
She adds if you think you re the victim of a scam to call the Florida Attorney General s Office.

TALLAHASSEE, Fla. â Florida s first major police reform package in years is headed to the governor. Senators gave final legislative approval Thursday with a unanimous vote.
Florida s Legislative Black Caucus negotiated the bill with the GOP majority in hopes of easing tensions between law enforcement and communities of color. The deal followed the killing of George Floyd and national unrest last year. Both parties came together to put forth this legislation to make policing better in Florida, said House Minority Leader Bobby DuBose, D-Fort Lauderdale. It will safeguard and support good law enforcement officers while protecting vulnerable Floridians.
