‘I said I'll report them for insurance fraud; they refunded me straight away': HOA hires towing company to ensure ‘aesthetic’ parking, towing company mess with wrong resident, leading to resident destroying them both

This HOA got more than they bargained for when they hired a towing company to ensure that cars parked fit the 'aesthetic' of their neighborhood. Correct, you read that right; the HOA president decided that parking was not allowed in front of townhomes because they were at the front of the subdivision, and he felt it was 'unsightly' to see cars parked at the curb when he drove by. So the HOA hired a towing company to make sure that cars that dared do so be towed.

What the HOA didn't know (we assume) is that the towing company was committing insurance fraud. It all began to unravel when they attempted to tow OP's car. He's the type of guy who is the opposite of a pushover. He figured out quickly that he was being scammed, and that it was actually illegal to tow his car, so he did some investigating and confronted the towing company with his findings. What ensued was some sweet, petty revenge, both on the towing company and the HOA.
