Protect Yourself Against Scams Targeting Families in Mourning

Learn How to Identify and Avoid Scams

We want to make you aware of a concerning trend where individuals with ill intentions are targeting families mourning the loss of a loved one. These scammers impersonate representatives of funeral homes and falsely claim that additional funds are needed immediately to avoid cancellation of funeral arrangements.

To protect yourself:

  • Always contact the funeral home directly using the official phone number or the contact information provided in your General Price List or documentation.
  • Avoid using contact details provided in unsolicited calls, emails, or text messages from individuals claiming to represent the funeral home.

If you believe you may have been targeted by this scam, please contact us immediately at 713-659-7618 or reach out directly to your funeral director using their legitimate phone number.
