I am filing this complaint regarding fraudulent and unethical practices by Terry Deaton, operating under the name Terry's Mobile Repair. On August 8, 2024, I was instructed to have my car towed to Mr. Deaton at the above address, which he referred to as his "shop." However, upon arrival, the location was revealed to be a trailer park and not a legitimate repair shop.

Mr. Deaton assured me he would repair my car so it would be operational again. Specifically, he was tasked with fixing the alternator, a repair he initially quoted to cost between $200 and $500. Since that date:

1. Daily Charges: Mr. Deaton has charged me $25 per day for storage, accruing fees that now exceed $2,000.

2. Failure to Provide Proof of Repairs: When I requested photos or videos of the work being done, he provided only a blurry photo of the dashboard and an exterior picture of the car. No images under the hood or of the alternator repair were shared.

3. Conflicting Communication: Myself, my uncle, and my father have all maintained communication with Mr. Deaton. He has lied to each of us about the status of the car and the terms of the repair. He has provided inconsistent statements and has refused to honor the original repair quote.

4. Refusal to Negotiate: I have made multiple attempts to negotiate a reasonable payment, offering to pay the original quoted price or a reduced amount for the incomplete repairs. Mr. Deaton has categorically refused and continues to demand over $2,000.

5. Abandoned Vehicle Threat: Mr. Deaton has threatened to declare my vehicle as abandoned and transfer ownership to himself, despite my ongoing communication and efforts to resolve the issue.

The vehicle in question is a black 2012 Chevrolet Equinox LTZ, with license plate 11AE2HX and VIN number 2GNALFEK8C6111973.

I have since learned that Mr. Deaton has a history of scamming out-of-town customers, as corroborated by multiple poor reviews and complaints from other individuals who experienced similar fraudulent behavior and unlicensed mechanic.

This situation has caused significant financial and emotional distress. I am requesting immediate intervention to address the following:

• Prevent the "abandoned vehicle" claim: Ensure my car is not wrongfully seized or transferred to his ownership.

• Recovery of my car: Facilitate the return of my vehicle in its original state or repaired as promised.

• Refund of unjustified fees: Reimbursement for storage and repair costs that were not authorized or completed.

I called the number associated with the Google helpline and when the people answered I could hear him asking someone else for money before he said hi to me and then asked for my name and birthday. Then, they told me it would cost $250 to get information on my question. when I asked him if this was not google that I called he said no it was a third party and I said I'm trying to get to Google to find out why my storage was full when I paid for extra storage. he just kept saying it would cost $250and I told him I would be contacting the better business.

My husband and I are trying to fix our home we needed a company that provided new cabinets for our kitchen. We found one that had promised us good quality and an early delivery. My husband, Anthony Perez met up with Melky at her business located at 11220 Metro Pkwy #15, Fort Myers, FL 33966 hired Melky's on September 7 2024 paid in full by check made out to cash as requested by Melky's ,she required cash in the amount of 4,600 for her to come out to our home make measurements and order our cabinets with delivery and installation. Soon after the payment the woman got sick and sent my husband a picture of her at the hospital, a week passed by. She wasn't better,another couple days after she decided that she was going to make an arrangement to come and make the measurements, so that we can get our cabinets. She said that her car had an issue on the way to our home and that she couldn't make it. After that it was excuse after excuse, we were patient with her, we empathize for her and with no care in the world she lied to us and tried to convince us that she was an honest person and that she would deliver and she never did. We decided that we wanted to do things the right way and let her know that we needed our money back and that we were going to report her because she was not thinking about giving us a refund after waiting through her nonsense. Melkys said she had a no refund policy for the cabinets but we never got them so how we wouldn't get a refund would be completely uncalled for she threatened us that she had a better lawyer and that we would be wasting our time going after her legally. This women is not an honest person and doesn't make an honest living. She has hurt multiple people and has gotten away with it. It would be best to put a stop to her business fraud.

She goes by Christine. I found her online @ www.peaceatmindbodyandbeautyco.com. I texted & called on Sept. 28. We made an appt. for Oct. 11, 2024. She made me pay upfront. I paid $250 on cash app. & set my appt for the next Fri. On the morning of my appt on Oct. 11, she claimed she was sick & rescheduled me for the next week. I schedule it for Thursday Oct.17. Then when that day came, I came to the office & couldn't find it. She gave me the address 100 Crescent Court

Dallas TX 75201 7th floor. The floor she was supposed to be on doesn't have any info on her. The people at the desk didn’t know who she was. I called her & her # we have been in contact with was now disconnected. I went on her site & found a new number on it & called it. She never even bothered to let me know her # changed. She answered on this new # and claimed She was out of town & had me booked for Friday. I drove & hour there & hour half back bc of traffic for nothing. I told her the people didn’t even know who she was & she just said that was strange. She agreed to give me 40 $ discount since it was her mistake & I would come the next day to get my procedure done. I already gave her 250 on cash app so she agreed to give 40 back for the inconvenience. She claimed her cash app acct I paid her on was closed & she only could use venmo. I told her to send me the 40 through venmo then. She now says her venmo isn't working & that she contacted venmo & they'll fix it in 72 hours . The next day, Fri, was my appointment. I texted an hour before I had to leave to the appointment. She claimed she texted me at 12pm that her flight was delayed & needed to reschedule til next Friday. I never got the text. She sent me a screenshot of just her message. No messages from our prev

message was included. She just showed her own typing to show that she messaged about the rescheduling. I told her to send a screenshot of the previous message before & she wouldn't. Luckily I messaged her before I went bc I would have wasted another 2.5 hours to drive for nothing. I also took time off work. She told me she couldn't come to the office until the next fri. The office doesn't even look like an office to do any cosmetic service & the people there said there was no peace of mind and beauty. They didn't know who she was. Her cash app I sent money on was opened 3 weeks ago, when I paid her. She literally scammed me out of 250$ . What business changes a number, claims she closed a cash app acct, then claims venmo is having technical issues, & can't come to the office for me to get my money in person? I still haven't received my 250$ from her. She pushed my appt. Out 3 times & each time her own excuses. 1st was sick, 2nd misscheduled, 3rd flight canceled. She changed her # , claimed cash app acct closed, & venmo isnt working, & texts regarding her reschedule didn't go through. All this within 3 weeks. She kept coming up with excuses for me not being able to come to the appointment and her not paying me back. She took 250 from me & hasn't refunded the money.

She's a scam & has been reported. I have all the screenshots & proof. I have a trip to go to on the 1st of Nov & wanted this done before then. I wasted 3 weeks & 250$ on her just to scam me. She hasn't refunded my money & all she does is push fake appts out to buy time & give excuses after excuses.

I called a number on the internet for Atlantic Garage Door Repair to have the coils replaced. The representative told me it would be $95.00 for service and the cost for coils ranging from $75.00- $149.00. Free Estimate. The tech arrived on Sunday and told me the entire job would be $400.00. I was tempted not go with the service, so he used another tactic where now he found other things such as all my rollers, wire, and the two drums were rusty and should be replaced. So he said he would give me a deal. There was no deal. We agreed on $550.00 for everything. Because I did not get it in writing in the end he charged me $645.00 and that price still did not include wires that he could not change. I paid it but later after reviewing how much the replaced items cost I then knew he took advantage of me. I called the company numerous times for management and have yet to receive a call. It was one thing to be scammed but another when the customer service is poor. The internet gives them high stars which is misleading. When I tried to add my BAD experience I could not. I learned a valuable lesson and my garage still does not work. ????

I am locked out of my facebook account.

The service i tried to contact were imposing as a legitimate Meta employee..

They attempted to authenticate my information and then asked my to download two applicationa that would give them access to my phone.

I downloaded them and they started to tell me they were going to transfer money from their account to mine then back..

Moments later, my bank called me asking if i initiated a 5000 dollar transaction.

Theytold me it was fraudulent and to removeall access they gained from my accounts.

Now all my account information for my banks, for my social media, and my email accounts are stolen.

Its a car wash and they say its $5. They give you time and for $5 dollars they give you five minutes. But, this is the second time they charged me for $15. I'll bet they do that to all customers. I won't use them anylonger but there are a lot of unsuspecting people who are going to get cheated. Can you do anything about it?

I googled a local upholstery cleaning company. Onspot carpet cleaning came up had 5.0 stars over 300 reviews and was verified by google and was open Sunday and available to come clean my emergency situation. However when the man got here he arrived in a luxury vehicle (not a company van) I found this to be odd being as I was requesting a cleaning which in the past the company usually comes out in a van that has water and hoses for the cleaning job to be done. The man came to the door with a bucket from the Home Depot with glade air freshener, I felt uneasy but he assured me he was able to get the job done, he brings out a machine and asked to use the water from my restroom tub and quotes me several different amounts based on cash vs zelle payments and area being cleaned. I agreed to the spot cleaning. The man drenched my couch cushions and sprayed the glade spray and assured once it’s dry the odor would be removed and the couch would be clean. However this was not the case this morning, I called the company back to express this information and come up with a resolution or perhaps refund and I have not heard back from the manager / owner. There is no website information or address online just the name of the company and phone number with reviews. This company is a complete scam and needs to be shut down for investigation

Brandon Steves approached me on April 10 noticing I had damage to the rear of my vehicle, which was from being rear-ended on April 1. I was scheduled to take it to a shop the following month. He said he had a new body shop in the state and could get me in right away, and gave me a business card and flyer. I went to the shop location and filled out paperwork, he called insurance and got approval from Progressive, the insurance of the driver that rear-ended my vehicle. I noted there was a business license on the wall from Orem City. He called Enterprise and got me in a rental vehicle also covered by Progressive. As the weeks went by he said he was waiting on parts on back order, then it was that they sent the wrong parts and he had to send them back and wait. After two months no one responded to calls, and when I stopped by there was no one at the shop. I ended up calling Orem police, who said it was a civil matter but that they could speak with him. A few days later I stopped by again and the sign was removed from the shop. I spoke with a neighboring business and they said the shop was never busy, and that I was the second person they had talked to that came by looking to get info on their vehicle. I spoke again with the police and they at that point suspected the vehicle was stolen and that this person is a con-artist, possibly someone who’s done this in other locations. They said it was under investigation.

In the meantime I kept calling and texting off and on in case, and after another month he texted at 8:31 PM with “car is ready”. I called the police who recommended, I text I would come the next day. I arrived with officers but no one was there, so I called and he actually answered the phone. He said he’s been out of town in Arizona because his grandfather died. He said my vehicle should be right there parked in front but I said it wasn’t, he said look around in the back, again nothing. I asked him to verify the address of his business, and he took a minute rummaging around and finally gave me a different address and said the vehicle is there, and that Jorge would give me the key. I went with the officers and the address was actually for a different body shop, Gamboni Auto Body. We found my vehicle there, but the repair wasn’t completed. Jorge said Brandon had left it months ago and he was waiting to get the remaining parts. At this point the officers said it was no longer a criminal issue since my property wasn’t stolen and they left. Jorge said he had no information on the owner and was just waiting. I took my vehicle home and have since been again unable to contact Brandon, who isn’t answering my calls or texts.

I was contacted about a potential job by text. They said they received my resume on LinkedIn and wanted to set up an interview. I researched the company before I interviewed and their website looked legitimate. The interview was very odd as the HR person (Reynaldo Rodriguez) not only was late, but it took him over an hour to ask 2 simple questions (my name & address) & to answer my question about the interview process as I asked if we would be conducting this via web or phone and he stated it would be done via Messenger (SIGNAL MESSENGER). After 50min, he asked if we could start the official interview. I was texted 11 questions which appeared legitimate & after I responded to them, he told me he would forward my answers to HR (he is HR!!) and asked for my name, address, phone#, Email address and name of banking institution. He then told me to check my Email tomorrow regarding employment status, report on-line at 9am EST & be prompt. I asked several follow up questions and never received another reply. I also never received an Email and he removed himself from the chat. A complete scam!!!!!!!!

They offer a set of lawn mower tires with free shipping for $33.90.>>They ,DAORNIS, have the ad up still<<. I went on google looking for some 15x6.00x6 tires and saw the ad. It was for a set with the 3/4 '' hole. I fell for it . The e-mail from tammy lu gave me a tracking number. I did not know at the time it was coming from china. after about a month it said the package had been delivered. NO PACKAGE. After a few e-mails to tammy lu, I had to face the fact that I had been scammed. Take these buttholes out before someone else gets taken.

My wife called this locksmith BOB CAR KEY because it had 4.6 stars on Google review to get a key that was locked in the car.

A man named Rueven Amar showed up and attempted to get into the car. He took an hour trying multiple doors to get into the car. Reuven ended up damaging both my passenger side door and my driver's side door to get into the car. Then Reuven charged me for my locksmith services. He charged me four times for the air wedge used to open the car door. This is a scammy tactic. My wife paid the fee and then Reuven left.

I had my wife call Rueven back and talk about the damage to the car and the overcharged price. Rueven talked with his manager Elijah and said that they would drop the price to $150 and the price change would be seen in two business days. Rueven then gave us Elijah's number to get the car door fixed.

My wife sent Elijah the pictures of the damage done to the car door. Elijah didn't respond, so my wife called Elijah and she resent the pictures via text.

We waited two business days and the $150 price change was not changed on the credit card.

We contacted Elijah over text and phone again, but we were strung on saying the change should come through soon.

We finally called Elijah over two weeks after the service and asked for the price change again and for when and how the company was going to fix the damage to the car doors. Elijah said that he would send a screenshot of when he processed the credit card refund. Elijah again didn't do anything, so we called back again and he sent a screenshot of the $150 price change.

More information:

Reuven Amar 385-507-4455

Elijah 385-216-1000

We asked when the car door was going to be fixed. Elijah strung us along about how he needs to get his guys to do it and how he is busy.

We are waiting to see if the original price of $359 was changed to $150. We are also concerned with trusting these guys to fix the damage they caused to the car door.

This company disguised its Google reviews site as a more reputable locksmith named Bob's Lock Safe and Key. They prey upon victims thinking they are getting the other trustworthy company. Also, good Google reviews must be by people who think they are reviewing Bob's Lock Safe and Key.
