Dormont Residents Warned of Door-to-Door Scammers
Dormont Council warns residents that people claiming to be collecting money for the Keystone Oaks band aren't related to the school district.
warned residents Monday night that door-to-door solicitors claiming to be with the marching band aren’t related to the school district at all.
Council member Laurie Malka said she received an email from a resident on Monday stating that people had been walking through Dormont and asking for donations, saying they were representatives of the Keystone Oaks band.
She said a band director in the school district told her the band does not solicit funds by collecting donations door-to-door.
