OKLAHOMA CITY (Aug. 27, 2024) – The Office of the Attorney General has charged an Oklahoma City man with defrauding clients out of more than $39,000 for construction work that was never done.

Prosecutors allege Paris Bilbro 29, contracted with customers in Lawton, McLoud and Tuttle for roof repairs over a two-month period last year. His company, AMG Construction Group, failed to do any of the work it was contracted to complete. Bilbro never refunded the money.

Attorney General Gentner Drummond said his office has no tolerance for consumer fraud.

“The attorneys, investigators and support staff of the Consumer Protection Unit of the Attorney General’s Office do an outstanding job ensuring justice for Oklahomans who have been cheated by unscrupulous actors,” he said. “This case starkly illustrates why consumers should always be cautious upon entering into a contract.”

Bilbro faces three counts of embezzlement and one count of a pattern of criminal offenses.

Any individual who believes he or she has been defrauded by the defendant in this case is urged to contact the Consumer Protection Unit of the Attorney General’s Office at (405) 521-2029 or via email at ConsumerProtection@oag.ok.gov.

Every person arrested or indicted is presumed innocent unless and until convicted in a court of law.
