Baton Rouge Scammers and Thieves Getting Bolder!

One of the things that really gets us upset at Wholesale Flooring & Granite is people who cheat other people out of their money. Just after the big flood that damaged so many homes and businesses in Baton Rouge, the crooks seem to come out of the wood work. Even now, they are still at it. In a recent story we read, we learned of a whooper scam that involved more than a million dollars. While this story does not have anything to do with homeowners, it does show just how bold some of these crooked people have become:
“A former employee of Axiall Corp., the PVC resin and building products manufacturer acquired last year by Westlake Chemical Corp., pleaded guilty March 22 to embezzling $1.4 million from the business in a wire fraud scheme. Wade Barbay, 54, of Baton Rouge, La., admitted to using his position of overseeing Axiall's corporate credit card program to steal the money from January 2011 through May 2016, according to Department of Justice officials.”
