Scam Alert! Once again I am compelled to warn shoppers at local areas grocery stores to be weary of people who approach you in the parking lot offering to repair a dent in your vehicle. In the last two weeks, I have had two victims of this scam visit my shop to have their vehicles repaired. These SCAMMERS have no other objective but to remove cash from your pocket and place it in theirs. What they perform is an out right scam and they have no intention or ability to repair your car. I have posted some photos of their latest victim's minivan  in the hope that it will save the next innocent shopper a loss of capitol and further damage to their second most valuable purchase. It is our duty to share this info with friends, family and colleagues in addition to local law enforcement if possible. So please Tweet, Facebook or send up smoke signals but please get the word out and save a neighbor a headache. If it sounds to good to be true, it is! A wise man once said and I qoute," The sting of a poor repair far out last the satisfaction of a cheap price". Knowledge is power, I employ you to spread the word!
