This guy is a totally SCAMMER! W/c was endorsed to us from where we bought our garden soil since we are new to the area before. So my husband contacted him, came and do some of the work but never came back for doing our walkway and our porch. Too many lies, too many excuses until one day he wasn't contactable anymore! And my husband gave a deposit of $2500 and gone...
Matt Dittmann is a scammer. He has scammed me and many people I now know out of their money and not done the job he said he would.
I had him come to my house and quote for a fence . He required half for a deposit. I gave him $1000. Then he just gave me excuse after excuse as to why he couldnt come to the house to do the fence. This was in April 2018. One excuse being his mother died.... turns out she is alive. Hes just a liar... Then when I requested a refund he also had excuses for why he couldnt give it back to me. I have now found out he is doing this from midland, to brampton and everywhere in between. PLEASE BE AWARE of him!! He was using the company name MSD Contacting Inc but goes under a few different company names so he can continue to get away with. I will be taking every step I can to stop him.
Matt Dittman from Central Sod (or whatever other company he is going under, is a scammer. Took $8,000.00 from me for an Interlock job. It was a big job. Gave me a very aggressive quote and a time line that fit my needs. Need 1/2 down for supplies. He even wrote me up a contract so I felt pretty safe. Gave him $8000 to purchase interlock and the rest is history. The very same as the others that have left reviews. Excuse after excuse. Sick mother, concussion playing rubgy, etc. Nothing but lie after lie.
Went to the Police but they told me that "because I gave him the money, it is a civil case and nothing they can do". This is pretty lame since he is clearly doing this as a full time job (ripping people off that is). If this many people have had the same issues with him, I can't imagine how many have had issues and have not reported it. He needs to go to Jail and pay for this. I hardly even care if I see my money again as long as he is put behind bars. People like this should not be allowed to walk the streets.
If you have had similar issues and would like to work together on getting this guy off the streets and behind bars, text me at 416.930.9862
I am in the same boat as the people before me. Matt from now MSD Contracting quoted a job and appeared to be knowledgeable. Gave a quote and took the job. Called a number of times to ensure a deposit goes thru.
On the day of the job, does not show up. Claims his mother was placed on palliative care. Since then, cancels a number of dates. On the day I canceled a job, he was on his way to me after sitting in traffic for 5 hours. Since then gave me no less than a dozen different BS excuses as to why he can't get the refund. On the last day he told me he is bankrupt and is filing a proposal. Basically conned me out of the money.
I have filed a Small Court claim against him and his office.
Given that he has done this to multiple people, it is a pattern of fraud. This has to be reported to your local police and when you do tell them that others are reporting too. If there is 2 or 3 people together, this is enough for a fraud investigation.
I have been in touch with 2 other people. Contact me for any details 905.330.4610
The main principal of this business - Matt Dittman, or Matthew Dittman cannot and should not be trusted. I have answered the ad on Kijiji advertising Best and Most Affordable Landscape Rates. Matt provided a very good quote and asked for a deposit. I have provided $200 as a deposit, which he accepted via the email. On the day of the job, Matt never showed up, and when contacted claimed that his mother was ill. We needed the job done urgently, so we have cancelled. Matt promised to refund the deposit. After about 30 days or so of broken promises to "I am emailing you the money but I am having the issues with my email", "give me another week", "I am out of town", etc. I realized that I have been scammed of $200. Well a lesson, I guess, not to give out the deposit money to some strangers. Just make sure that you take a note of the name, cel number, and the company name (probably fake name as well) and never give this person business, your hard earned money, a deposit of any kind. If interested - I would be happy to provide a full communication with this person.
