This does not surprise me at all, unofortunately. We had a fire and called in a group to board up the house etc... The next two days, we lost all of our new TVs and other electronics, liquor, and a locked suitcase. Pretty much suspect the company that boarded up the place....they did not get paid for any of their work...
