🚨 Important Scam Alert for Our Families 🚨

At Progressive Funeral Home, your trust and security are our top priorities. It has come to our attention that scammers have been spoofing our business contact information and impersonating insurance agents to deceive families.

Recently, a family was contacted by someone pretending to be an insurance agent, claiming their funeral insurance policies were behind on premium payments and demanding immediate payment via CashApp. This is a SCAM. We want to remind you:

✅ We will NEVER ask for payments via CashApp, Venmo, or other instant payment services.

✅ Insurance companies typically will not call for late payments. Instead, they deduct from your existing premiums if needed.

✅ Always verify any communication regarding insurance or policies by contacting us directly at 706.685.8023.

✅ Be cautious of unsolicited calls asking for immediate payments.

If you receive any suspicious calls, please hang up and call us directly to confirm the legitimacy. Help us protect our community by sharing this message with your loved ones.

Stay safe and vigilant!
