James Dunn, 37, went to the woman's Fort Myers home to sell her air
conditioning services. She agreed to pay $3,000 through financing to
have her air conditioner refurbished. The owner of the company Dunn
worked for went to the woman's home and discovered that she didn't fully
understand the contract, so he canceled the contract and did not charge
her, authorities said.
The company owner told Dunn
he had canceled the contract. Dunn proceeded to create a fake contract
using letterhead from an air conditioning company that previously
employed him. He convinced the woman to go to the bank and withdraw
$2,000 to pay for the fake contract.
A
month later, Dunn returned to the home while a well-being check was
being done at her home. Dunn told the person checking on the woman that
he worked for the air conditioning company on the letterhead, which was
untrue, and introduced himself using his deceased father's name,
authorities said.
He is then said to have aggressively demanded that the woman pay an outstanding balance of $1,000.
Dunn
left the home without getting the money and was reported to law
enforcement. The Lee County Sheriff's Office investigated and then
turned the case over to the state attorney's office.
