CAUTION: FRAUD from FAREHUTZ with fake cheap non-refundable reservations

This is a fraud alert regarding fake non-refundable reservations from Farehutz (https://www.farehutz.us/) that are populating the major search engines (like skyfarefinder.com). After you fill in your credit card details, they call you back with fake stories that part of your reservation is not confirmed but you also cannot cancel it because is non-refundable. After this they impose their “help” with a price that is several times higher, otherwise you lose all the money paid for the reservation. Even if I said that I am cancelling my credit card so they cannot charge it, the reply was that the United Airlines already charged my credit card and this cannot be refunded. This was another brutal lie - obviously the airline could not charge my credit card for a non-existing fake reservation. Even a week later if I am trying to buy air tickets for the same itinerary, the same fake reservations from Farehutz (they said are not confirmed and not available, but also non-refundable) are coming at the top of the searching list. The entire phonecall and conversation is then based on wicked lies and fake stories that their computer-generated fake reservations are not confirmed and also cannot be cancelled (even though they are fakes from the very beginning).

Even though they might have same small print on their web-site to keep them out of jail while they continue fooling the travelers, they still cannot populate the major flight search engines with computer generated fake reservations, then to claim these are non-refundable and cannot be cancelled and charge the victims several prices. It also becomes impossible to separate fake from real reservations and someone needs to stop this.

As I can see, despite existing complaints and various agencies contacting them, no actions are taken and the fraud continues.

Farehutz claimed to provide a flight ticket that was competitive with other providers. After they collected personal and credit card information, they sent an email saying they were working on obtaining the ticket. The next day, they followed up with a phone call, informing me that the price had dramatically increased, and I needed to pay the difference. I refused to pay, and a few days later, they sent me an email stating that my reservation had been canceled.
