he says he's a master electrician. how do i find out if that's true? i know he knows what he's doing. i don't really doubt too much that he's a good electrician. it's everything else that i think he's embellishing.

Then he would most likely be a member of a Union. Check to see if there is an online member list for your state.

You can also check to see if he has a valid State Contractors License online with search by name.

Good Luck...your friend is lucky to have you watching out for her....

if he's any good at scamming you won't find much of anything anyway


don't you guys find it just mildly creepy that any moron on the planet (present company excluded of course) can pay $20 and see if you were ever married? I don't care if that moron has a "reason" or not, its still creepy - the important stuff like certain laws they broke is a matter of public record and you shouldn't have to pay for it.


whatever happened to being able to trust your instincts? in 15 years online I have never yet been wrong about someone I met online, then met offline.....


anyway, I only responded cause I was just vomiting over the "been verified" commercial not 2 mins before I opened ATS - it was ... not exactly ironic that this thread was here, but interesting
