NEWS

Members warned about 'National Directory of Home Builders' scam
Members are urged to discard notices of a $75 or $125 dues payment due for a national builders directory membership. PBA is warning its members that they may receive a letter labeled as "The National Home Builders 2009 Membership Directory Listing Application" that requests a "dues payment" to be sent to the National Directory of Home Builders in Stoughton, Mass. PBA members reported receiving a letter like this one, in an enveloped marked "Membership Renewal" with Pennsylvania Home Builders and National Home Builders Directory listed in the return address. PBA interim director Doug Meshaw said, "Please share this information with other members at local builders association meetings so no one falls for this scheme tricking people into thinking the invoice has something to do with PBA or NAHB."
