We have the ones creating the dents here! In Delray Beach I was pulling out of Wells Fargo, and a guy threw himself up onto my hood, claiming I hit him on his bike! Needless to say, it was at my bank, and he wanted $50.00 to make it go away. In shock, I paid it, but had a huge dent in my hood. He waited as I went to the ATM. He hid behind the bushes, and when you look left he throws himself on your hood and his bike on the road. I paid it not knowing it was a set up at the time, and easier to pay than have everything go up and go to court. Later in the day, I realize I took the bait and was scammed.
About 6 months later, I witnessed the exact same thing happen to a Mercedes, same place different guy, and again to a single female driver again. He probably got more than the $50.00 he got out of me...Also happened to a friend of mine in WI coming out of a drive thru.
Be careful....
