GABE CASTILLO CE (CASTILLO ELECTRIC) SERVICES UNLICENSED, UNSCRUPULOUS, UNETHICAL "ELECTRICIAN' SAN ANTONIO Texas
We would all like to think we are smart and saavy when it comes to our remodeling dollars. The truth is- we are sometimes all to vulnerable to scam artists who betray our trust and take our money. My personal observations follow.
Mr. Gabe Castillo and his hoodlum family and friends have scammed many clients by charging for electrical and contractor services not performed or poorly performed. Materials go missing. Valuables go missing. Mr. Castillo goes missing.
Craigslist, word of mouth friends, false advertisements, public subcontracts are where he can be found trolling for his next victims. His MO is much like that described here by others. He performs small tasks, gains trust and then asks for funding for bigger tasks, then slowly disappears.
Mr. Castillo has a public criminal record going back over 20 years. He has most often been arrested for theft of check, DUI and for theft of services. He has been known to use his sons, brother, cousins, friends, former felons, etc to carry out his brazen criminal activity and fraud. He has served time incarcerated and is known to his POs.
It is shameful that many of the innocent workers, desperate for employment, who provided services on his contracts were left without their duly earned pay when he disappeared on payday, pocketing their wages for himself. Many were brave enough to file criminal charges for theft of services. Others did not know how to navigate the system, and were left with nothing.
If you have an interest in stopping Mr. Gabe Castillo in this obscene further cheating of innocent victims, email [email protected], contact the San Antonio Police Department, the Attorney General’s Elder Fraud Section or call the Texas Department of Licensing and Regulation. Mr. Castillo dba Castillo Electric Services is not a duly licensed electrician. If you are a worker who has performed services on a project, but have not been paid, you can explore your options. If you are a client who has been cheated, there are resources that may help.
Mr. Gabe Castillo, in my experience, is all the things people have called him here and worse- thief; scam artist; con man; fraudster; thug; a weak, insecure laughingstock.

Hate to say it but America is full of fools who hire based solely on price, giving no thought to checking credentials first. Let this be a lesson. Hire a (((redacted))), get second rate work. Can't wait till they start going after your careers, undercutting your wages like they have in my field thanks to short sighted fools like you.
