Tony at "832-388-8419" Car body repair scam on paintless dent removal Car body repair scam on paintless dent removal houston, Texas
Car body repair scam for paintless dent removal. Scammer finds you in a parking lot, offering to remove minor dents from your car, claims they do this on the side for extra money besides their normal job doing it for a company during the day, will do for you for 1/4 the shop price. They end up doing a lousy job and making your car worse with their inadequate tools and skills. There was no written contract or paperwork.
They start out saying you pay nothing if you are not satisfied. Then when done, you express your dissatisfaction and they try to claim YOU were the one scamming them by not wanting to pay the full amount they proposed IF you were satisfied. They make you feel guilty for not paying and try to intimidate you. They threaten to call a tow truck to seize your car and put a mechanic's lien on it. When you get your car home later and wipe off the paste, you see they caused more damage and didnt fix the problem.
The Hispanic male about 25 doing the work said his name was Tony with close cut hair. He called me on his phone "832-388-8419" while he was there and said I could call him later if he needed it fixed more. However, it was all a ruse, because he knew his work was terrible and had no intention of ever doing more. Thats why he uses the white paste to hide the damage he caused and says it must be left on overnight. By the time you remove it later, you discover the scam and he is long gone. His wife was about 25 also and the 50 year old fat mother of one of them had her b***s almost spilling out of her top. The women both had dirty blonde or light brown hair.
They were driving a fancy expensive-looking black 2-door sports car in the Frys parking lot Monday night 5-3-10 about 830PM at 11565 S.W. Hwy 59 South Houston, TX with store phone 832-200-3300.

Your report is lacking. What names did they give you? What vehicle were they driving, color, model? What is the location of where this occurred? What does the business card say that they gave you? What date and time did this happen? How much did they ask for? How much did you pay them? Did you get a license plate # or from the cameras at the gas station? Etc...

The gentleman approached me at a gas station. He had a red gash on his right eye. He made it seem like he would do it for free and needed to do it now because he needed to return his " tools" then ns brother appeared out of nowhere. ( obviously they were hunting me) and they got to Orkney on my car. I had a dent on the left side with severe scratches and a crack on my rear. They used a lever and slightly on cranked the dent, then put sod white paste all over it. Then hey applied sealant on my crack. They told me to wait 48 hours. What I fool iwas! They kept saying " tell your friends about us" and had some old man in thir car they referred to as their dad. Well played. But man oh man do I wish someone could o something. They wrote me a nonsensical reiept and gave me a business card. I understand my money is gone but I hope if someone comes across these men, they tell them thy are going to the ATM and call the AUTHORITIES!
