Illinois leads the nation with 140 tornadoes in 2026 after multiple rounds of severe weather damaged homes and businesses across the state.

While property owners across the state face the responsibility of cleanup, repairs, and rebuilding efforts, criminals can take these circumstances as an opportunity to exploit communities through contractor fraud schemes.

NICB encourages industry partners to help raise their policyholders' awareness about contractor fraud and encourage them make informed recovery decisions.
