He showed up on December 4th to inform me that the job was more complicated than he thought and he would have to come back at a later date with a helper. I asked him to at least move a ceiling fan for me (no more than six inches from where it was). I went to get money out for paying him. and I slid it under a bed sheet and it later came up missing. while he was there, he became antsy and appeared as if he wanted to leave. He said he would have to come back with a helper and left. I have called and called and tried to get a returned call, and since this large amount of money has disappeared, I know why he isn't returning calls or coming back to finish the work. He was the only other person in my home that could've had access to the money I hid. He never came back to complete the work. He stole the large amount of cash & the $200 and ran and now I know why. I've filed a police report and the police are still trying to get in touch with Derek but he is not responding to letters or phone calls. He was also sent a letter from the prosecutor to which he never answered I just thought people should know that this guy is no good. He will probably change the name of his company but his picture is on RIP OFF website where I found out he also ripped other people off out of state. This man's father is a preacher in Niles & I did call him to confirm that. Just type in Derek Salyers on your PC I went to the two of the addresses that were on RIP OFF & his business card & neighbors have told me his parents & Derek moved about 1 month ago. If anyone would want to talk to me I will leave my phone Number 330-717-0606. I am also contacting the POL/BD/AUST local newspapers to let them know of the incident.
Description of Work: I found his ad in the local POL/BD/AUST newspapers. He initially came to give an estimate. He asked for 600 down, but I gave 200. I was going away for a while and he said he would come back after I returned.
