Contractor Fraud Awareness Week (CFAW) is here.
Contractor fraud has increased 38% from 2022–2025 — and every year, thousands of vulnerable homeowners are targeted by bad actors looking to exploit their misfortune. That's why NICB launched Contractor Fraud Awareness Week in 2021, and why this fight is more important than ever.
CFAW has become a national platform to drive real change for homeowners and the industry. From specialized investigator training and advocacy work to consumer education, NICB and our partners are building a united front against fraud.
Share this post to spread awareness. Learn more and register for training at nicb.org/CFAW
A huge thank you to our anti-fraud supporters Insurance Information Institute and Coalition Against Insurance Fraud for standing with us in this fight.
