The email address is not even relatable to the company name or person mentioned. Do they think people are dumb?

Their operation often masks as a disolved company or one with a simular name. They know peeps will fall for it. Having been given a repair bill for 10,000 sovs or more from a main dealer, peeps spot one of their many ebay adds for 2,500 and go for it thinking they're getting the same deal. Few do any real checks. Sadley many have lost their money and vehicles. Others have paid more through blackmail to get their vehicle back. Often requiring more money spent to put the damage right, as well as doing the origional agreed work as it wasn't fully completed by the scammrrs. Often not even attempted. They have tried to bodge it instead.

I tried to contact them recently and no one answered my calls. Also I found out that previous staff in the office isn’t working anymore. Jimmy was sacked and Shak stopped working as well. Anyone got any contact details of them here? I would like to have a word with them, especially Shak, everytime I went to garage, he was always more honest and respectful than anyone there. Jimmy did chat a lot of bullsh*t but worth trying having a word with him as well.

Have you lost a vehicle to them or had work done?

I had my RR Sports with them. Bottom tier work and no accountability for that whatsoever.

The latest phone numbers we have are in the most recent posts in this fred. The only other option is to visit their Telford site. Some scammers are still working at sunbeam street in the small units on the right, as you first drive onto sunbeam street.

"Ellena Lee
  • Sorry for my scepticism but it looks as though these "rats " are contacting members of this page using a female Asian woman to pose as a victim ... she's playing the card of someone who needs help and is asking if anyone would be prepared to go to court to help her out .. I spoke to her but got the distinct impression she wasn't honest . I told her yes I would be prepared to be a witness and had comprehensive evidence against DAE to which she asked " aren't you scared of them? They've threatened to go to people's houses with shotguns ? "
    I told her no we weren't afraid of them .
    She asked me to send her a statement for her solicitor so she could proceed with a court case but the email address didn't exist ... my point is be AWARE and don't give personal traceable information to anyone unless you are 100% sure it's not someone acting on their behalf
    "

Nope, still no van and now can’t contact them. Getting the police involved now.

l hope you get your van back, unfortunately the Police often won't get involved as they call it a "civil matter"

Legally what you have is not theft, but a garage who took your vehicle for repair and haven't completed the work in a reasonable time, and have still got the vehicle.

lf contacted by the Police the garage will likely say "still working on it" or waiting for parts.
So the Police will go away, their time wasted. Which is why they often won't get involved in the first place.

Looks like they're still using a similar name to another company, Sovereign Automotive, which is a legit company and nothing to do with the scammers.

Now selling their scam on a different user name:

https://www.ebay.co.uk/usr/esme1276
esme1276

Usual setup of taking over someone's account and using it as their own. No sales history for the last year. Thousands of transactions on the account.

500 sovs for a recon engine in the sale title. Over priced when you consider the quality of work if you get yer car back. 4500 sovs further inside the listing.

https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/125706101082
another new phone number:

07931 930 506
07931 930506
07931930506

Using this company name and address

AKV ENGINEERING LTD
35 Firs Avenue
London
Lincolnshire
N11 3NE
United Kingdom

Telling them you're turning up to collect the vehicle seems to be the best way of getting it back. Others have said they have done this and the vehicle has been ready when they got there.
