What incentive would they have to do that? They need to burn the body anyways to dispose of it; using other ashes would literally be more work. Also there’s a pretty big difference between corpse ash and wood ash. They are going to be giving you the ashes of a burned body, there is no logical reason for them to deliberately give you someone elses ashes.
Comment on How can you make sure the ashes you get after a loved one dies is actually theirs?
Don_Dickle@lemmy.world 1 week agoNot talking about just mixing them up. But what if one person goes home and gets ashes out of a fire place then sell them to you as a deceased loved one?

The ashes from cremation are ground up bones. They should look quite different from wood ash.

I am not paranoid enough to imagine such a thing.
