Total money lost $1,200
Type of a scam Other
A man by the name of Jeff Coates came to my families house in Crystal Springs, MS stating that their company, Skyline Security Management, Inc. / Guardian had bought out the security company my family was using. My family is an elderly mother and disabled sister. This happened in February 2016. My dad passed away in May. I was checking my mom’s checking account and noticed she was billed by two security companies. When I called the former company to tell them their services were no longer needed the guy on the phone asked who they went with. I told him it didn’t matter. He said he was only asking because a lot of their customers (elderly) had been approached and told that SafeHome had been bought out by Guardian. This is a lie. This person is going door to door preying on vulnerable adults. I called to check on the Jeff Coates person. He is actually an employee. They need to be stopped. I had my mom put a stop payment on any more money drafted from her account by this company. They have since called to tell my sister (the name the account is in) that she will have to pay $1200 to get out of the contract. I have power of attorney for my mom and sister. I told this company that they would not be receiving any more money from my family and if they kept calling we would fill harassment charges.
