Police charge man with fraud of more than $100,000

Boynton Beach Police charged Douglas Livingston with grand theft on Feb. 17 for scamming four Boynton Beach homeowners out of more than $100,000.
Police spokeswoman Stephanie Slater said the homeowners paid Livingston’s company, Home Team Advantage, for remodeling projects that were never completed. Some were never even started.
Livingston is currently in the Palm Beach County Stockade. Delray Beach police charged him with fraud in November.
Boynton Beach Police have charged Livingston, 42, with grand theft over $100,000, organized scheme to defraud over $50,000 and four counts of contracting without certification.
