Tonna Carlo owner of 'Winning Attractions' upholstery out of Elma and McKenna, WA. Had been contracted to do upholstery work for my vehicle. She asks for money upfront to order materials and 50% of her labor charge.
Work was never completed. Materials were never purchased. Long story short she took the money and ran. I had to pay someone else to pick up the pieces and finish the work.
Her unethical business practices, her poor work ethic assists her in finding excuse after excuse not to finish the work. She will give you pitty story after pitty story. From no gas money to get to her shop, to saying materials wont fit to buy her time to get more materials because she spent the money on something else on her stupid Lama someone gave to her.
She lies and cheats sympathetic and unsuspecting customers into believing her "feel sorry for me" lies.By then she has your money and it's to late.
Anyone looking to have Tonna do anything for them needs to ask for references because they wont check out. After many years in the business (so she says) she has nothing to show for it but pictures of cars she didn't do the work on and claiming them as her own.
She has been denied to participate in car shows and clubs as her poor reputation for conning people is now finally catching up with her. She is on the run, she never stays in one location for more than a year or so because she has ripped off everyone she possibly could and it's time to go to the next town and do much of the same.
I should have known looking at her she was full of it. An overweight 50 year old woman with scraggly hair, very poor hygiene and never wore a bra should have been at least a warning sign.
Again, someone who claims over 40 show winners shouldn't be living in someone's field in an old run down rv trailer with no utilities right? Unfortunetely I didn't know much of this until she had my money and my car.
She has taken a car that meant a lot to me, took it apart, lost the parts, never bought the materials I paid for and left me with a basket case of parts that will cost me thousands to have someone else finish. Please please... Buyer beware!!
