On Saturday, August 4,  I went to a gyro restaurant in Greektown around 2am and there was no street parking so we pulled into a empty lot about 50 feet away from the place. There were no visable signs that I couldn't park there, so I left my flashers on and started  walking toward the restaurant.  I ordered my food and I was out within 5 minutes with my carry out order. I walk back to the lot  and my car  is gone!. I thought it was stolen so I immediately call the police.  police told me to look for any signs cause that is a private pay lot and it probably got towed.

Private pay lot? There were no attendants or a kiosk where I can pay, I said to myself. I walk towards the building and there was the sign, barely visible and I called the number on the sign. Guess what, these thieves said they towed  it  and its on the way to the yard. I hailed a cab and went to the ghetto to retrieve my car. These people are the scum of the earth.

When I went to pick up my car they pretended like it wasn't there just so I would leave and have to pay more of their absolutely ridiculous "holding fees". The trailer park trash lady that I dealt with even closed her window pretending like she was doing some work to get my paperwork ready. She had done nothing except sat there in her trailer park perch (I assume to smoke her Marlboro) letting me sweat the insane cost to release my car.  Any company/organization that uses this corrupt towing service goes right along in the same category.
