Reading the horror stories people have been through— imagine how much $$$ an honest, high service company could make?? Until…. the guys that run that industry find out and send someone to your home, office, etc 😳🤫 and SUGGEST you close shop. “Would be a tragedy should somethin happen…”
If you could delete one auto transport scam tactic forever — what's going first? The deposit trap? The price change call 2 days before pickup? The "guaranteed" quote that somehow wasn't? Pick one and tell us why it needs to die first. Let's make the list.
Ship Your Car NOW. Also operating as Sync Auto Logistics. Also operating as Pro Tech Auto. Three names. Same company. Took money. Damaged the vehicle. Disappeared. When a transport company needs multiple identities, that's not branding. That's a paper trail they're trying to lose.
A family bought a Corvette. Paid a transport company to deliver it. Got a call Sunday saying the vehicle had been stolen. The company's explanation: "we were hacked." They're out $60,000. 🧵
Express Way LLC. 3 vehicles. Deposit paid. Extra insurance payment demanded and paid. Pickup day: "truck is in the shop." Next day: "repairs cost $1,500 — send it to the driver directly." Customer asked for the repair shop's number to verify. Driver refused.
Menard Movers. Reasonable quote. Then +$1k three days before the move. Then more charges on moving day itself. By then: everything packed. Truck at the door. No leverage. That's not a pricing error. That's the business model. Quote low. Collect when you can't say no.
Nest Auto Transport threatened to reroute a customer's vehicle to Iowa because she left a bad review. That's not a policy dispute. That's extortion. Here's the full story. 🧵
We'll be like Ireland during Cromwell. They EXPORTED PLENTY OF FOOD WHILE THE IRISH STARVED. Sorry for yelling, but I'm sooooo damn hungry! The money doesn't care who buys, as long as they get THEIRS.
Shippers point to weaker dollar + overseas demand. Truckers around the Bay Area seeing more outbound than inbound. Kol Castle voice: Oakland’s usually import‑heavy. When the balance flips, it tells you the ground is shifting. Watch the lanes. Watch the currency. The port doesn’t lie.

Navi Auto Transport. Active military. PCS move. Virginia to Nevada. 19 days notice. 7 calls to support. 40+ minute holds each time. Agents who couldn't help. Departments that never picked up.
Oakland exports beat imports in April. Rare flip: outbound loads stronger than inbound boxes. -- Exports up 11% YoY — almonds, wine, meat leading. -- Imports down 5% — retailers pulling back Asia‑to‑US. -- First time in years Oakland’s export side outpaced imports.
Nexus Auto Transport came in $400 cheaper than every other quote. The customer's instinct: "this is a classic bait and switch." That instinct is correct.
Montway. Auction car in Texas. Transporter finally arrives after days of delays. Car "can't be jumped." Load cancelled. No call. No heads up. Just a storage fee reminder in the inbox. Daily fees stacking. Back to square one. Montway's response: "we'll have an agent call you."
ACERTUS. Paid a month in advance. CA to OK. Last day of the pickup window. "We don't have a driver for you." Flight leaves tomorrow. They took payment upfront and figured out the driver later. Turns out later never came.
Nexus Auto Transport And Another Scammed client.
Vice Auto Transport. 4 weeks notice given. Texts back: everything's fine. Pickup week arrives. Radio silence. Customer had to find their own carrier last minute. "Everything was fine" is the script. Ghosting is the plan.

FDOT always has the best warnings around the holiday times
Florida fired a wildlife biologist for a private post mocking Charlie Kirk. Got doxxed by Libs of TikTok. State saw it. Terminated her. She sued. Won $485,000.
Maersk fined $1.9M for detention charges. FMC says they billed shippers even when containers couldn’t be returned. Multiple violations. Years of it. $1.9M sounds big until you stack it against $13B+ in profit last year. That’s not punishment. That’s pocket change.
Montway Auto Transport. Payment taken. 9 days. Standard sedan. San Diego to Atlanta. No shipper found. They have your money. Your car doesn't move. One of the biggest names in the industry. Still can't cover a basic route.
"On December 11, 2021 CFL announced it would be ceasing operations with final freight pickups on December 13 followed by a full wind-down of the company." *scratches head*
Central Freight Lines - Wikipedia
en.wikipedia.org
Central Freight Lines: 96 years erased overnight. 2,100 jobs gone before the holidays. Drivers blindsided, some found out on social media. Customers scrambling, freight stranded. This is what happens when mid‑sized carriers bleed out with no buyer in sight. Fragile market. No safety net.
Oh my god that is awful! I'm so sorry that happened to you. What a**holes.
This happened to me. I had to drive to Seattle and drop it off at my kid's house to be picked up DAYS after my plane took off. Cuz I had to meet my moving van on the other side of the country. It's a racket.
United Auto Transport. Full week of availability. Customer relocating. Told them: flying out after the weekend. They dragged it to Monday. Exact day of the flight. Entire week to move. Chose the worst possible moment. This is not a mistake. This is a pattern.
