Homeowner narrowly saves trees from removal scam - Lemmy.World

… and as the article fails to mention… what about the bloody TREES!? Imagine scammers cutting down a century-old, beautiful tree just to make a few hundred dollars. What a scummy, short-term, selfish thing to do. GRRRR.

Stories like this make me consider that humans deserve to go extinct. Maybe raccoons and corvids will do a better job of caring for this planet.

Especially since you could pull this scam with a whole lot of other businesses that wold not result in cutting down trees.
Maybe the point is to also reduce the selling price and buy the house with trees cut down for cheaper?
