Complaint Review: Robert Lopez - Lakewood Colorado

I am a real customer posting this consumer warning to help others avoid this horrible landscape freelance worker. If you see his ads on craigslist, you should flag them so that he can't victimize anyone else. 

I hired Robert Lopez for landscaping work. He offered a good deal for a cash deposit upfront and claimed he was using the money for materials. He started the work and did a substandard job, then after receiving the second deposit, he abandoned the job and started ignoring my calls and texts. Once he figures he has received enough cash from a job, he will disappear and move on to the next customer/victim.

I threatened to sue him so he finally called me back and admitted that he had gone on a drinking binge for the last few weeks and that he no longer had transportation because he crashed his motor scooter several times (which is his only means of transportation). He also admitted that he took other jobs because he didn't have any more money. So he basically admitted to being an alcoholic and lied about why he abandoned the job. 

His name is Robert Lopez and his cell phone number is 303-931-9683. He's Hispanic descent and in his late 40s but dresses like he's 21. He talks A LOT and will ask for cash only and a deposit to start the work. He drives a little all black motor scooter. He also has a business card with the following title: 

A-1 Affordable Services - Landscaping & General Handyman - Robert and Terry -7204210022 or 303 931 9683

He will text you pictures like the following to convince of his work but he admitted that he only knows how to do sprinkler systems and that his ex partner was the one who did all the patios and stone work. He said that he is just tries to figure it out as he goes. Which basically means that he has no idea what he's doing. He will use family as a fake reference if you ask for references. 

He posts ads on craigslist every few days using titles similar to the following:
