RUN THE OTHER WAY
RUN THE OTHER WAY. BIG SCAM. We were on a tight budget so I searched online for a less expensive casket. Found what we wanted at Sky Caskets. Called and spoke with the person who assured me he was with Sky Caskets. Told him which casket we were interested in. I specifically asked about additional costs as we didn’t have a lot of funds to use. He assured me that the advertised price would be my cost. He claimed to be in Cleveland “right down the pike” and said it would be an easy delivery. I agreed. He told me he would need me to sign and intitial an authorization he was emailing to me and called me back after he sent it to, walk me through where/how. I opened it (the form was larger than my screen) but I followed his directions looking down the middle for boxes to initial and signature at bottom. I trusted them but it was a BIG scam. I then received an invoice in my email and noticed the price was completely different. The agreed price was $995. The invoice was for $1492. No shipping charged. I immediately called back but the would not answer phone. Called again later using a different phone. Same guy answered but claimed to be someone else. He claimed to be so sorry for the mix up and assured me he’d check into it and call me back. He did not. Again would not answer my call later. Used a friends phone and called again. Same guy with yet another name. He said I could not cancel order or would be charged $700 restocking fee. I explained it was still there so there shouldn’t be a charge. He became rude, yelling at me that he was working on it and hung up on me. My credit card was billed the $1492.00 from FAST CASKETS. Gee another name. Now our loved one will not get a head stone as Sky/Fast Caskets cost $497 more than we were quoted and used up the funds.
