SCAM ALERT!!!
My car was broken into late Tues early Wed. at my home. My side window was broken. Unfortunately *** *** *** repair couldn’t repair until a few days so I called another company, which appeared legit with a website and all. They had the window in stock. Tech arrived in a white van with window. He seemed to know what he was doing as he started disassembling the door liner, and I noticed he pulled something from his pocket. He then tells me that the "window’s clips" were broken and it was going to cost me another $300. I was suspicious so told him I’d rather just file through my insurance. He then called "his boss" who was very shady and tried to negotiate with me, which included how I can scam the insurance company to get the money back. The entire situation was very suspicious, so I asked the tech to leave. Over the phone his boss said I needed to pay him $150 for his labor, otherwise, he would have to "take my car." Needless to say, I called the police while he was standing there. He quickly packed up and left. While doing so, he also took my car key and has refused to return it. Not surprising, I had my window fixed yesterday by *** *** * *** and no such clips were needed!
