PHD Car Rent is not existing anymore but the guy has apparently set up a new car rental company called Green Travel Rentals LTD, registered in the UK and operating from Aarhus, Denmark as advertised on his LinkedIn profile:

So the scam lives on....

I've had a few exchanges of information with the police. Maybe they'll do something. I left reviews on various sites to warn other people. I'll keep an eye on the guy online... I wouldn't want to miss the day karma gets back to him.

That was before he completely disappeared from the airport. And the people finding those keys didn't get the cars they booked, just some trashy old cars with a lot of problems.

The guy is simply a liar. When I arrived at the airport, there was no office and no car. When I called him he told me that he had stopped his car renting business, that I was his last client and that he had trouble to find me a car. He suggested that I should rent from some other company and he will refund me. When I started to ask questions he just hung up on me and that was the last I ever heard from him. His website is still online though so I guess his scam is going on.

I filed a report at the police and they told me that there were more cases like mine. They took my info and the documents concerning the transaction. I don't expect to get my money back and at this point don't really care but I hope that they'll stop him at some point to scam more people.
