    That's a stupid scam too. I remember when the scammers would camp out in the dollar store parking lot and offer to fix the dents on old people's Chevy Caprices. As if that wasn't bad enough, they promised to "paint over the fixed dents like Brad Angove on RUclips would." While it says a lot about the reach you've achieved, it's still lousy that a few of these almost 130K people are scammers.

If you did, there's no doubt they'll ask you for money for shipping or some such bs. I report them as spam and/or misinformation. It clearly has little or no effect though.
