25 Allegedly Unlicensed Workers Busted in Mission Viejo

In Mission Viejo 25 allegedly unlicensed workers were arrested as part of a statewide sting this week.

Investigators from the Contractors State License Board posed as landlords asking for bids on projects ranging from "landscaping, concrete, and fencing to painting, gutters, garage doors, cabinets, tile work, and tree trimming," according to a CSLB statement.

Some of those arrested statewide were caught for not listing their contractor's license in advertisements, the CSLB said.

The workers are now required to appear before a judge on various dates throughout May and June.

Statewide, 135 allegedly unlicensed workers were arrested.
