As soon as Florence Moss opened the mail and looked at her bill she says she knew something was wrong.
“I feel like I got ripped off,” said Moss.
That’s when she called News 4 Tucson Investigator Nick VinZant.
Now, Moss says she had a full refund.
“I couldn’t even believe the check. I looked at the check and I said this isn’t real. Went to the bank as fast as I could and it was real, ” said Moss.
