🚨 SCAM ALERT – ATTENTION TIRE & AUTOMOTIVE SHOPS! 🚨
We want to make other tire retailers and automotive businesses aware of a suspected scam currently targeting shops in our industry.
We have received multiple suspicious inquiries from individuals attempting to purchase large quantities of commercial truck tires, specifically:
🛞 Steer & Drive Tires
🛞 American-made tires ONLY
🛞 Sizes such as 11R22.5 and other commercial truck tire sizes
🛞 Bulk orders
⚠️ DETAILS TO WATCH FOR:
📞 Phone Number: 236-485-0167, along with various WhatsApp numbers.
🏢 Business Names Being Used:
Habibi Truck & Repair – claiming to operate out of Moncton, NB
Next Generation Truck & Auto Repair
👤 Names Being Used: Including "Bruce" and other names.
📧 Email Address: [email protected]
These individuals appear to be using different business names, contact numbers, and identities when reaching out to tire suppliers.
PLEASE BE CAUTIOUS!
We strongly encourage fellow businesses to independently verify customer information, confirm payment legitimacy, and avoid releasing merchandise until payment has been securely verified.
We cannot confirm whether the legitimate businesses, if any, associated with these names are involved. We are simply sharing the information provided to us during these suspicious interactions.
Let's look out for one another and help protect our local automotive and tire industry from potential fraud.
📢 PLEASE SHARE with other tire shops, truck repair facilities, and automotive businesses!
