24 Hour Locksmith
24 Hour Mr Locksmith Mr ProLock, Mr Locksmith, AAAutomotive Locksmiths Scam Artist Locksmith in Vancouver BC - 24 Hour Mr Locksmith - Fraudulent Adver
12th of Nov, 2010 by User282862
24 Hour Mr Locksmith is using a .com URL made up of a local competitor company's name in an attempt to steal business from that company. So pathetic. The website www.robsonlocksmith.com is forwarded to www.mrlocksmithvancouver.com so that people searching for Robson Locksmith, a local vancouver locksmith will go to this scammer's site. This is fraudulent advertising. The fraud locksmith company, 24hr Mr Locksmith, also uses the name of the owner of Robson Locksmith and "Robson Locksmith" in the meta data of his website. What a con artist. I happened to notice that the company he's stealing from has many positive reviews on line where the one I could find on him was negative.

He also teaches a class on how to rip off the public if you buy into his business plan.

3. Locksmith Service Scam - WHIN-YATES gives low quotes followed by high charges ($95 quoted, $300 charged). He completes unnecessary work. He dishonours appointments and agreements.
