BALLSTON, N.Y. (NEWS10) — A Greenfield man was arrested following a scam investigation, according to state police. Michael Marlett, 21, has been charged with third-degree grand larceny.
On January 25 at 6:30 p.m., police received a complaint from a Saratoga County resident regarding a contracting dispute. The investigation determined that in December of 2023, the victim had agreed to hire the owner and operator of ATQ Contracting LLC, identified as Marlett, to complete a remodeling project at a home in Ballston.
Police say the victim gave Marlett a deposit of $10,000 ahead of the work. Marlett allegedly failed to start the project by an agreed upon date and did not return the deposit, resulting in the theft of the money.
Marlett was taken into custody in Clifton Park and transported to SP Saratoga for processing. He was arraigned at the Malta Town Court before being released on his own recognizance.
