Southwest Tow Operators Had their fist pilot show Recovery Alley "Scammers" last night. We have much more coming up in January. Stay tuned for a line up of up coming shows. Merry Christmas from the association that is by the towers, for the tower.

Andy, its happening all over Texas. Follow Southwest Tow Operators on Facebook for more Information on these "Scammers" also we are going to do something Saturday afternoon on this on our live platform. Stay tuned!

Recently, Marcello Perez, from Wolverine Productions encountered a scam that is affecting tow truck companies nationwide. People are taking it upon themselves to look for tow companies on google and then representing themselves as a tow company with fake websites. These websites have different phone numbers and fake addresses. These scammers then take calls from people that need a tow and charge them high prices so that they can contact reputable tow companies for the actual tow. These scammers then pay the tow companies low prices and profit off the initial payment. Marcello Perez represents Southwest Tow Operators and their members to track these scammers and report their activity to google. Tow company hackers are on the rise so this video was created to spread awareness of cyber crimes like these. Protect yourself from tow company scammers and ask for their TDLR license before hiring them. Ensure that the operators that pick your car up are certified in proper training. Also stay tuned for our scammers episode on Southwest Tow Operators live stream show "Recovery Alley", it's everything towing folks. See you then!

TDLR only goes after the companies that will pay not the fly by night and scammers!
