Scammers aren't just on the internet...

There's nothing like a man with a plan:

Deputies arrested a man they say pretends to be a mechanic and offers to fix your car. Despite the good-natured offer, police say he's the one who broke your car to begin with.

Woohoo... Columbia...

The article says he's thirty-four. That's not a misprint? I'd go more for forty-four. Fifty wouldn't surprise me either.

I have heard of people damaging the body of a car at night, returning the next day and running a scam that they noticed your car was damaged and they work at a body shop. Happened to a friend in NJ a few years back.
