A work crew is going around Sunnyside in orange vests, intentionally looking like City em-ployees and trying to con resi-dents. They put a depth gauge or camera down your sidewalk trap opening, show you footage of a bad-looking sewer (not yours), and then try to sell you a new system.

Sunnysiders, watch out for these guys and don’t be taken in by this con. At least one neighbor has confronted them and told them to leave as the trap is private prop-erty. They don’t like having their photos taken. Call 911 if you feel threatened.
