Alert
On July 24, 2024, it came to BBB's attention from the Owner, that an impostor Facebook and Instagram pages were created by scammers to appear to be Smitty's. The owner Louis Amos told BBB he does not have Facebook or Instagram pages for his business. The email address smittysautomobile.com listed on those pages is not the company's email address. Consumers have filed complaints with BBB about ordering items from these pages, and the items were never received. The owner attempted to file a police report and was told to report the fake pages to Facebook and Instagram. If you have purchased items from either of these fake pages, BBB recommends the following:
- Dispute the charges with your credit card company
- Report the fake pages to Facebook and Instagram
- File a BBB Scam Tracker Report at https://www.bbb.org/scamtracker
