Carlos Rios Charles Rios, Caarlos Rios, PRBarts arts Company, Father 4 Son Inc, Carl Reading Food Cart Scam Deltona, Florida
Purchased a food cart through Ebay from this guy. After several month of delays, broken promises and threats he finally shipped a food cart. The food cart that he shipped was not the one in the pictures he sent us and arrived badly damaged and unfinished. The material was extremely light weight, sharp unfinished edges all over, many rivets missing, and the gas lines were thin coper piping with hand drilled holes. Not usable and a severe safety Hazard. We rejected the delivery and asked for a refund several times and have not heard back from him.
He informed us that he had heavily insured the cart for shipping. The crating for the cart was so poor that 90 percent of it was gone on arrival.
After research on the web we found several other reports of the same guy with the same scam from Virginia. Seems his guy moved to Deltona florida and has started his scams again under different business names.
