Michael Penny Mobile Mechanic Craigslist Robert Allen, Chris, SMS Auto, many alias CRAIGSLIST MOBILE MECHANIC SCAM Cincinnati CRAIGSLIST, Ohio By the despription .... I was just scammed by this person yesterday!!!! Milford Ohio

I am a female.

In this case... his name says it all! I was Robbed!!!!!!

This person came to my apartment to work on my car and "replace" a power steering unit.

He got here and said is $80 ok? I said I can do $80. he left awhile came back and said he needed another $35.00 for another tool! What???

I gave him that also. stupid me! After he said he fixed it, he said "wait a half hour before starting it"!. hhhmmm Wonder why?

He didn't check the repair after done or even put fluid in the car!!!!!

drove it down to auto zone to get power steering fluid. Battery light was on all the way to Auto Zone.

Opened up the hood to find out the belt fell off and the power steering unit was hanging on by one bolt!

at that point we are out the $$ and stranded!!!!

he was supposed to come fix it tonight at 6. no reply's and no show!!! Figures!

I would also like to add... his attempt of putting a new power steering unit on (we supplied) Came with a cost also. The old power steering unit we had to return for the core charge ... he claimed it was cracked! It was inspected and found not to have anything wrong with it!

We have his name Rob and his number. (((redacted)))

We plan on taking legal action when we find him and will go to the extreme to make sure he doesn't do this again! While waiting for information we plan to use the phone number (((redacted))) and his name to of course leave negative reviews on the net!

If you know this person, please send the info. All other Ladies... BEWARE of this CON!

The number he used was (((redacted))) This is still an operable number!!!
