It's not often that being at fault in an accident actually gets you money, but when a scammer tries to extort you for fake repair costs, it can end up working out in your favor.
When u/bigcapper69 accidentally ran into someone else's vehicle in a parking lot, they immediately apologized profusely and offered to pay for the damages. They describe that the scammer, who they refer to as 'Brent', initially came across as very cool. Brent seemed to be taking everything in stride and was quite happy for u/bigcapper69 to settle up in cash and get the work done at a repair shop that u/bigcapper69 recommended.
When it began to drag out, and u/bigcapper69 didn't hear anything from Brent, they began to worry. After some time, u/bigcapper69 gave Brent a sizeable lump sum of cash.
Then Brent disappeared again. The next thing u/bigcapper69 heard was when they got a message from Brent's lawyer claiming that nothing had been paid. That's when u/bigcapper69 began their revenge.
We love to see scammers like Brent getting served. There is nothing better than when karmic justice plays out before your very eyes.
