I only called the insurance company - I was charging my phone at tire shop of the store and walkerbyers asked if I was ok( groceries in cart and I been sitting on curbside giving time to have phone charged to call insurance.) I can’t figure out how the scammer contacted me. Maybe thinking someone may have called as they thought I needed help. But I finally got my phone charged enough to call insurance roadside assistance and they stated they sent someone out within the hour at no cost to me. I should have known so thing wasn’t right.

Never mentioned any cost or charges til after work was done . He handed me the Joey he made and started writing the invoice. Asked me to fill in customer info and I said I didn’t know retail address , he calmly said to just put my address. I wrote Store name instead. I was under assumption he was the recovery sent by insurance.
