My Elderly Parents Are Getting Visited By A Different Con Artist Every Few Weeks (Public Board)

They all are "roofers" doing the exact same scam. They say "I'll give you a free roof inspection" or "I'll clean your gutters for free." When they're up there, they make a hole in the roof saying "I did you a favor and removed some loose shingles. BTW, you need a new roof. Hire me to do it." Then the roof starts leaking the next time it rains, so I know they made a hole in the roof.

My parents don't have the awareness or self-discipline to say no. I can't stay home watching them 24x7.
