SonOfABitch
That bastard I tapped in my car a month ago is back !
It took him 2 weeks initially to get back to me regarding his first "estimate" where he was demanding that I replace his bumper. I told him to forget it. It was a scratch and that we did not discuss anything more than a touch-up. He told me he'd have to call me back. I told him that was fine.
It's been another 2 weeks - which now brings us to a month past the incident in question. After calling me like 5 times he finally left me a message saying that he had gotten another "estimate" for $150 to have a touch up done. (I didn't pick up the phone any of the times he'd called because I couldn't believe it'd taken him 2 weeks to get back to me and I REALLY didn't want to deal with it - besides, who calls 5 times before leaving a message?!?!?!)
I left him a message back this morning saying that I'd received his message and that $150 was fine but that I would ask him to please fax me a copy of the estimate as well as a copy of his registration and the address to which I can send the money so that I have the information for my records. I said that upon receipt of the fax I would get his money right out to him.
Do you even KNOW the son of a bitch had the balls to do???
He left me a message back saying that he didn't know who I thought I was but that I was not going to call the shots here and that he wasn't going to "fax (me) nothin" and that I needed to call him back. That it was, afterall, me who "hit" him and so I have no business asking him for anything. He was fucking nasty as shit.
Fuck that shit.
I am SO tired of this bullshit.
I called J and told him that I wanted him home when I called the bastard back.
J says I should call him back and tell him that I am asking for these documents for both my protection and his and that I am unable to send him any money before I see this information. If he gets angry and nasty then I am to hang up on him. If he calls back J wants to handle it and he'll pick up the phone and deal with the bastard.
This shit SO unnerves me!
I do NOT like to deal with this sort of crap. I am not a confrontational type !
J asked me if I wanted him to deal with it. I told him that I didn't know and that I don't really want to involve him. I feel badly, but I so DO want him to just take over this and handle it and not look down on me for my shortcomings in handling matters like these. I want to be strong but I really really am tired of this crap and I don't want to have to deal with someone being ugly with me. This bastard is OBVIOUSLY trying to scam me. I just want to kick myself because I was stupid enough to give him my cell and home number. DUMBASS that I am, I was trying to go the right thing and was honest. STUPID STUPID STUPID.
My friend from work gave me the hint about requesting the registration. He said that this guy may not even be the owner of the vehicle and that I should ask for this to verify that it really is his car otherwise I could possibly have the real owner calling me up next. And once he said that it hit me - - - there was a "How am I driving?" sticker - like a real one- and I think to myself "It was a work vehicle ! ! !"
So I'm a bit freaked out right now.
Think I may need a drink.
SO don't want to have to do this.
What the fuck?
This douchebag won't just go away !
And now he wants to get nasty with me?!?!??!?!
I'd REALLY rather leave him another message - but I know I can't do that.
Great.
There goes my relaxing weekend.

Sounds like he is trying to scam you if he won't send the required info. It's not that hard to do. Hold firm with asking for the registration and a copy of the estimate. I might even go far as saying you'll cut a check to the company doing the touch up work. I wouldn't give him a check directly. Usually the insurance companies handle this shit. If he won't do as you ask he can submit the claim to his insurance. And his insurance will tell him he's crazy for pursuing a scratch. Good luck with all that. Jane

Thanks Jane !
:)
I definitely wasn't going to back down on this one.
It was simple for me - if he had nothing to hide then he wouldn't have had a problem producing the proper paperwork.
When I talked to my co-worker about the end of this story today he had an interesting thought...
He said "I bet he was in his work vehicle and he was somewhere he wasn't supposed to be". That TOTALLY makes sense ! He didn't want to call the cops or exchange information at the time and there was a REASON for that. I thought the reason was just because he was in a work vehicle and he didn't wan this company to know. But ! Considering where his cell phone is registered (yeah, I did a reverse phone inquiry on his ass) he was pretty far away from where that number is listed for. And so all the pieces fall into place ! :)
