A man using the names Tino, and others from this version from
Edward Lopatin "He parked next to me at Smoketree yesterday... And asked me if I wanted him to repair the few scratches I had on my rear bumper. And I told him to go away, and I stayed in my car until I knew he was out of the parking lot... He (or someone like him) extorted $300 from a friend of mine. Following her all the way to her ATM".
And Craigs List:
BEWARE, BEWARE, BEWARE of mobile dent repair (palm springs)
mobile dent repair, or auto body repair is untrustworthy and is representing himself as a auto body and dent removal specicalist. BEWARE, BEWARE, DO NOT USE!
HwEdrives a white chevy pickup truck, and uses many names, Hank, Jack, Rick and his phone number is (951) 318-6302. Be careful!!! He is a fraud, he said he will repair my car and never came back. He quoted a price to fix, then took money and never came back. BECAREFUL AND DO NOT USE BEWARE UNTRUSTWORTHY
BEWARE Mobile Dent Repair SCAM (Palm Springs to Riverside)
BEWARE, BEWARE, BEWARE of "MOBILE DENT REPAIR" (palm springs) This man has no scruples and says everything he has too, to rip you off for 100's & even 1,000's of dollars CASH whatever he can fast talk you out of, with PROMISES. He will say, "If you are not satisfied you do not pay". BUT his mysterious process takes hours to cure & he will not wait and wants his money now. And when you remind him of his initial promise of "NO PAY until it is done & approved by YOU"... He say's, "Don't YOU trust ME?" DO NOT PAY him one cent until you are 100% thrilled and that will be NEVER. He always has an excuse to leave with the money and vanishes!!! NO One ever returns phone calls all you get is a machine. But the Police are involved NOW and investigating!!! POLICE REPORT # 1304P-2838 Officer Torres spoke to "TINO" who he felt was being evasive & lieing so the Detectives are taking over... I have posted pictures Identifying him & his vehicle which interestingly enough has no license plates. This is one evil man with the scruples of a sociopath. DO NOT be fooled. Let Karma destroy him. Do not let him make you go hungry! MY car's bumper is a bumpy mess held on with a screw! And the red spray paint color is so OFF. This guy is SHAMELESS and so is the BOGUS Company... BEWARE! (He is a Convincing ACTOR)...
After the call from the police, Tino called me the next day and threatened me, stating he knew where I lived & what I drove. He also said he would say I never paid him and he would see me in court. MY advise NEVER do business with anything MOBILE unless you know them well enough or they are recommended by someone who used them for the same thing. This man became a raging lunatic over the telephone, using every terror tactic he could think of. What a looser/predator THEY are everywhere! BEWARE
He followed me home going on & on about how much better I would feel if my bumper was showroom beautiful again and then when I said I was not satisfied, Tino assured me the new high tech polymers & other products he used flatten out and blend in as it cures overnight.
Promising he would be back tomorrow morning to take the screw out he put in my bumper and polish it all up. I still hesitated, he got aggressive and said I did not trust him after he did so much work & I would see how beautiful it was... Ya da ya da ya da...
. I called the police they came out filed a report took copies of all the photos I took while he was working of him his vehicle & sine-age so I have it all on film.
These images need to be broadcast to protect other trusting souls from having their last dollar scammed from them. It was a crime when Bernie Maidoff did it...
I am a disabled senior with the placard on my plate and he may be the one who damaged my bumper last week at Smoke-tree in the first place & followed me home so he could find me it makes for a frightening world when NOW you cannot feel safe in your own home because after the Policeman Officer Torres got Tino over the telephone Officer Torres told me he knew he was talking to Tino but Tino was lying. The next day Tino called me and threatened my life & limb stating he knows where I live & what I drive if I did not call off the police... This Predator of the sick & elderly needs to be stopped... No one is safe
