State Attorney General Ashley Moody is warning Floridians to be vigilant for price gouging, disaster scams and fraud in the aftermath of Hurricane Helene.

Hurricane Helene made landfall September 26 in Florida’s Big Bend region, and the storm’s widespread effects, including catastrophic storm surge, strong winds and heavy rain, impacted millions of Floridians.  The storm flattened communities, took homes and has a rising death toll. Floridians may now be seeking food, shelter, debris removal or home repairs.

Moody’s Price Gouging Hotline remains activated for consumers to report allegations of extreme price increases, as well as scams related to the ongoing recovery efforts.
