Description

Charleston Locksmith / Charleston Locksmith Pro Website referenced: charlestonlocksmithpro.com Individuals involved: “Mike” and “Danny” Related network: Kadosh brothers (Adam / Omari / Shai) Incident: On November 8, 2025, I requested a car unlock service. I was quoted a low price range on the phone, but when the locksmith arrived, they charged $1,127.06 — 3–5× the normal market rate for the same service (typically $250–$300). After I challenged the pricing and threatened to dispute, they later issued a partial refund of $307. The remaining ~$820 is currently under formal dispute with ***** Bank. The business’s behavior matches known patterns of predatory locksmith scams — misleading phone quotes, refusal to give pricing before service, forced payment under duress, and inflated billing. Requested action: I am requesting that this business be investigated for deceptive trade practices and predatory pricing, and that this complaint be added to any existing file related to locksmith scams operating in the Charleston region. I can provide screenshots of the invoice, texts where Mike admits the pricing breakdown, and market quotes demonstrating normal pricing for comparison.
