It was all David ****.

AUTHOR: SAM - (United States of America)

POSTED: Saturday, September 22, 2012

This report will never quit. Sam Key never did anything wrong nor did he act in collusion to help defraud an insurance company. David **** was attempting to hide his car from Porsche of America and to defraud his insurance company.

When Sam Key notified POA (Porsche of America) as a manager is supposed to do, POA immediately said to stop all work and they would be out to pick up the car. They POA were the legal owners of the car. David **** had not made a payment for 8 months.

So the poster acts like he is some "worldly" individual, quoting "chills" as undercover agency people. The department of Insurance and the Bureau of Automotive Repair (BAR) do operate undercover operations. As a matter of fact Sam Key has operated shops that worked with these agencies. These shops were the shops that diagnosed the repairs and the fraudulent repairs. Sam Key was one of the guys blowing the whistler, not being written up.

This entire claim by David **** is bogus.

#12 REBUTTAL Owner of company

David Salas is the scammer

AUTHOR: Sam - (United States of America)

POSTED: Tuesday, August 31, 2010

Mr. Salas reports information that has not foundation nor is true. He has been disparaging my name and companies without truthful information.

The truck in question was abondoned and sold by way of a lien at Copart. The money collected was applied towards tow and storage fees.

Lastly, Mr. Salas tried to pay for repairs at our facility , but the credit card was a fraudulent copy card and his car was reported to the lienholder and they repossesed it. He only has him self to blame for his actions.

We have not done anything wrong, for if we had the authorities would have notified us. As of today no authority has contacted us on any matter.

The main question is if David Salas had any proof of misconduct all he has to do is file a report, if not all he is hot air.

Sincerely,

Sam Key

Mr. Brown's car was abondoned at our facility. We liened it for storage which is normal proceedure and we disposed of it. As a note Mr. Brown authorised to have it towed to our facility which cost $931.00 and the storage was at $30.00 per day and he was notified and at any time he could have claimed the vehicle but he chose not to. It was done all and perfectly legal.

To Whom It May Concern,

I have never been arrested by any action or involvement with the DEA, LAPD or Sheriffs Depart. David Powers and William Brown have been arrested and have spent time in jail. You can pull their records by going to LASD inmate locator.

David Salas did file a bankruptcy and you can locate it on Pacer.com

To David,

You are the one going by many names, the one under investigation, and the one who is the scammer. To date you have gone by David Powers, David Jones, David Roberts and your real name is David Salas, at least that is what it says on your CDL. You are the one who has ensnared his girl friend to slide cards at her work and you and your pals use that information to run amok. The Secret Service is aware and closing in on you.

Yes you fail to state that your car was repossed by Porsche and I can produce the repossesion order and will post it. William Brown "Skip" was arrested and put in jail for drugs and I will post his jail information. His court date is soon unless he did a b***h deal.

The agencies have your address and all of your associates, so they will be distancing themselves from you and they know you will cut a deal.

You post information that is not true, but evryone has the right to their opinion as I do but mine is based on fact and I can produce the facts , but you can not. Your continued use of other names only shows that you are hiding.

Sincerely,

Samuel Key

It would be great if David could get his facts straight, 1) TGS is not a part of The Buras Group. 2)  Sam Key is an employee of TGS. 3) David powers fails to disclose that he in fact filed a bankruptcy to defraud Porsche on his payments in addition to all of the other people he has disparaged. 4) David goes by numerous names and has been in jail. 5) The Buras Group and TGS are separate companies and at no time have been part of each other. 6) At no time did I state anything related to David's original statement. His statement is completly false. 7) The shop has not moved nor does it need to move.

  California Department of Insurance that already had complaints on this guy. Sam Key says he does not Own his Companies because he went into Bankruptcy so im assuming hes using some other poor souls name that he will ruin name and credit as well. Sam still up to his old tricks. BEWARE this guy has many tricks up his sleeve don't bother with this guy he will SCREW you one way or another hes the only one making all the decisions for all these companies,but he doesn't own them?

 TGS THE GLASS SHOP
 BURAS GROUP INC
 TGS CUSTOM AUTO BODY

 I cant find this guys companies with The Better Business Bureau ...i guess he likes to stay under the radar.
 
  Even at this moment he's holding WILLIAM BROWNS Car for many months and with no paperwork to work on it at all? ...this poor soul just wants his car back and without lifting a finger SAM KEY is charging him heavy storage fees. Sam Key looks like hes going to court again, im sure the judges know him by name by now. And Sam, David Powers or whatever you want to call him was Never in Prison for Fraud that's your Venture not other people besides the Drug Charges that you have for Possession and Sales.
 Good Luck in court with William Brown.

David Salas

AUTHOR: TGS - (United States of America)

POSTED: Monday, June 28, 2010

To Whom It May Concern:

David goes by many names, David Salas, David Powers, David Roberts, Confederate Group, Group 151, Galenmedicus, and what ever new company he might be trying to use. He has spent time in prison for fraud. He is currently under investigation for fraud.

In regards to his car, we never filed an insurance claim. His car was repossesed by Porsche of America because he ran a scam and did not pay his agreed payments. In addition the credit cards that he gave us for payment were latter proved not to be his and were fraudulent.

In addition David is under investigation for many matters with the local law enforcement. His loan brokerage company provides loans that do not materialize.

In addition, I Sam Key am only an employee of TGS and I have never been an owner of the company. I also understand evryone has a right to their opinion, but the truth is the truth and we have the fact based evidence to back everything we have stated.

Sincerely,

\Sam Key

This report is false. At no time did myself or anybody else at TGS conspire to commit fraud. This customer , David Powers and his friend Jose Martinez both wanted their cars repaired and we were to file the claims with the insurance companies. Asis company policy we notified the lien holder (loan company) on each vehicle and the Porsche(David) and Toyota (Jose) both came down and repossed the veficles because neither had made payments in 8 months. In addition the credit card that Mr. powers used was proven to be a fraud and the Secret Srvice is now taking action to arrest him.
