A customer's AMKO Auto complaint resulted in AMKO Auto of Waldorf, Inc. (“AMKO Auto”) paying a $57,563 judgment to Whitney, LLP’s client after prevailing on claims of Fraud and violation of Maryland’s Consumer Protection Act.  Our client, age 66, is an African American Vietnam Veteran and retired federal government worker who simply went to AMKO Auto to purchase a used vehicle he found online.  He had a terrible experience and felt he was badly taken advantage of. As discussed below, our client’s AMKO Auto complaint arose after he was tricked into trading in two cars, and receiving only a $500  trade-in credit for the first one.  In other words, he was tricked into trading in a second car, and giving the title and keys for that second car to AMKO Auto’s manager, who then kept the car and later sold it. Our client did not receive any trade-in credit from AMKO Auto for the second trade in. Once our client realized he had been cheated, he called AMKO Auto.  Our client testified that he was laughed at and then ignored.  Our client then searched Google to find a lawyer to help with his AMKO Auto Complaint, and found Whitney, LLP.  Although AMKO Auto denied liability, the Arbitrator agreed with Whitney, LLP and found that AMKO Auto, through its manager, had perpetrated a “fraud and unfair and deceptive trade practice” on our client.
