Montgomery County Man Sentenced for Home Improvement Fraud
**Harrisburg, PA** – Attorney General Dave Sunday announced that Jared Wyllie, 48, from Montgomery County, was sentenced to three to six years in state prison alongside two years of probation for failing to complete home improvement work. The victims collectively lost more than $156,000 due to his actions, and Wyllie has been ordered to pay this amount back in restitution.
An investigation revealed that between 2021 and 2022, Wyllie operated under the business name PROjex, LLC. He entered into contracts with four different homeowners, taking upfront payments while misusing another contractor’s license information. Several victims testified in court, including one who had to sell their home at a loss after paying over $100,000 for incomplete repairs.
Wyllie falsely claimed to be a licensed and registered contractor but had no contractor number under his name or business. The first complaints reported substandard repairs, with losses exceeding $16,400. Another victim contracted him for roof repairs costing $27,900.10, but Wyllie only installed a plastic tarp after promising roof repairs and collecting additional funds.
Attorney General Sunday emphasized the importance of consumers conducting research before hiring
