Good morning beautiful people of Spain. I like to say I'm a repeated traveler in my 30s with my wife. We go to ibiza every year and never had a problem.

Long story short, we rented a scooter for one day at a place called Mr Rental Ibiza which has 4.6 stats reviews on google (which we learned letter are all fake and bought reviews). 

Everything went good, deposited 250 euros if ever I did damage, which I didn't. I brought back the scooter, smooth sailing. 

30 days later, still no refund of the deposit. I call the company, they block my number? I text the owner on Whatsapp, ask him what happened, he told me a problem with the bank and ask me to be patient. I wait another 3 weeks, nothing 

I start reading reviews on other social platforms like tripadvisor, surprise, every single review is about being scammed of their deposit that was never refunded. Hundreds and hundreds of them never got their money back. Now I feel stupid. I text the owner, he said, if you keep texting me, I'll sue you and send my legal team after you. Wierd, the shop is small and has 1 employee, doubt they have a legal team. 

I write here because 1) I want people to be aware of the scam at this company 2) i wonder if there's any legal actions I can take against them? 3) i want to hear your stories, I never had problem in ibiza but truly feel scammed.

I spoke to dozens of other renters and they were all treated the same, all threatened by legal actions if they don't remove their reviews.

I love you Spain.
