New York Attorney General Eric Schneiderman issued an alert about price gouging during Winter Storm Stella. Schniederman says General Business Law prohibits excessive price increases of essential goods and services and that includes snow plowing, snow removal from roofs, shovels and other equipment and services for storm-related damage.

He says anyone who thinks they have been the victim of price gouging should immediately contact his office.  There's a complaint form that you can fill out.  CLICK HERE for the complaint form.
