Some people blow my mind...
So I went to pick up some Xmas gifts from the local mall and I come back to see that someone has swiped the bumper of my Z and managed to crack the rear signal lens.
On my windshield was a receipt (from Starbucks, no less) with the following scribbled almost illegibly onto the back it:
I hit your car.
People are watching me.
They think I'm giving you my informaiton[sic].
Sorry bro.
Really f*#king clever.
I can't put together someone that says "bro" going to Starbucks, but I went there anyway and nobody could help me. The manager said that can't release any video surveillance unless the police request it, so I've filed a complaint and we'll see what happens.
Amazing, isn't it? This guy has some *****.
I was so pissed but it's really not that bad of a hit. The bumper has some tiny cracks and white paint smeared on it, but not too bad.

If you have the reciept, then maybe they can tell by the order who it is on camera.
Then perhaps someone knows them that works there....
I guess you weren't lucky enough that they paid by credit?

Actually the receipt is probably time stamped. The video should probably have a time stamp on it too...
Although..What if he just picked it up off the ground.

In todays world of gutless people who don't take responsibility for their own actions, this wouldn't surprise me at all. Hope you get it straightened out. The dude is screwed if you can get a license off of video surveillance becuase of his confession of 'hit and run'. What a dumb-@$$.

If it is true, then that is ****ed up. Like they said above, keep the receipt and go to starbucks, you just mind find him on camera, ect.
Like I said earlier, if I am wrong then I apologize, but I have heard of this prank/joke many times before.

So your saying he's guilty until he proves himself otherwise?
Thats not right.. esp if this really did happen to him. Imagine how he feels if it did. Now he's got someone calling BS on him .. That would tick me off to no end.
Show some compassion, rather than saying he is a liar right out of the gate.
