I came here expecting a humorous twist to the title. Sad to learn you experienced this. It’s horrible when scammers pick on the fact that someone is new in town and find an opportunity to dupe them. I’ve been taken advantage of in front of authorities and they didn’t do anything.

When you called Five-0 you should have said there's a man in my apt. who's here against my will.

[@nadiasharnelle]

I agree! Even though he was calm, quiet and pretending he didn't speak English, he was right there in her presence. Like you said, I would've noted that he's in my residence and he refuses to leave unless I pay him money for services he didn't render and now his "boss" is threatening me.

Always try to have a man with you when taking care of any car or home repair in NYC.

[@julief634]

You are absolutely 💯 correct. Living in NYC all my life this has happened to me many times. You can't be nice to anyone, save it for only people you know well.

Funny thing though is when I get burned I flip and do a 180 on these mofos, they suddenly become afraid of me lol it works every time, they end up respecting you when you show you're not afraid of conflict.

Home Depot will ship it to you. It’s so easy to install. It comes with the window attachment with foam. It works amazing, my apartment is pretty big and it cools the whole thing. Even when it’s been 100 plug degrees, it dehumidifies too. Also WTF sorry this happened that’s messed up

[@abalahalamatandra]

Let this be a lesson -- just go with Home Depot next time. LOL! As a life long New Yorker, we already know not to install an AC in the fire escape window. But how were you supposed to know? I'm surprised you didn't get this in the documentation when you moved in, especially for how much you're paying. I moved into a $1,000 studio in the South Bronx a few years back, and even they (management) had a leaflet telling me what I was and was not allowed to do in the apartment. Installing an AC blocking the fire escape was on that list of DO NOT DO's. However -- so long as you deal only with your building's handyman from now on, you should be ok. I would get on good terms with him straight away since you don't have any reliable guy friends. Be safe out there -- and good luck!
