Scam Description
Found florist on Google. Called and placed my order mid morning for guaranteed delivery same day and paid with credit card. Person taking my order asked for party’s name and address and phone of recipient and my billing address; my email to send receipt.Never received email and flowers never delivered. Called 800 number that evening but only music. Called the next morning twice and 3 rings then hang up. My wife called on her cell and got a person that took our order number and had to transfer to his manager and she was on hold more than 5 minutes. Called again and no one answered and music. Baby Blue Flowers acted professionally when order taken but blocked our phone numbers so there was no answer for non delivery and distracted with music instead of live person to report non delivery. Then realized this was a scam and I was out $93.91 for flowers never delivered.
