Water Filter Scams On The Rise
Posted by Administrator on 3/22/2011
Investing in a water filtration system
for the home or office is not only a smart decision but also a healthy
one as well. Knowing that the water running from the taps and knowing
that cups filled up from the sink are pure and free of harsh chemicals
ensures that all members of the family or all employees within the
office are staying safe and hydrated.
Investing in a water filtration system is also exactly that, an
investment. The equipment is advanced, the installation takes time and
yet each penny spent on a water filtration system is a penny spent
towards health, piece of mind and vitality. However and unfortunately,
some water filtration supply and
water filtration system companies think otherwise as the scams
committed by water filtration system salesmen are on the rise.
A water filtration system salesmen in Western Kentucky has recently
been arrested and charged with scamming customers in the Western
Kentucky area out of thousands of dollars. The salesman processed these
orders, received payments from these customers and then never delivered
the system. Customers, or more victims of the scam, reported that they
paid out this salesman anywhere from $1,500 to $3,200 in cash. For one
customer, that actually received a water filtration system, reported
that they had been trying to report and file against the salesmen for
selling them a faulty system that never worked.
The salesmen currently faces jail time and a hefty fine once
convicted as well as paying out all customers who had been victims of
the scam. Iso Pure Water
advises that any salesmen who come door to door, who cold call home
telephones or who cannot provide alternative phone numbers or company
references are more than likely attempting a scam. Iso Pure Water also
advises that all customers thoroughly research any and all water
filtration system supply companies before choosing to invest in a
system.
