According to the complainant, after handing over the car for the supposed repairs, it was never returned, leaving him without a vehicle and without the money invested.\n\nV\u00e1squez Castillo calls on the competent authorities to investigate this case and prevent other citizens from being allegedly scammed under the same scheme. He also asks for his car or his money to be returned.","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
