Retriever Towing are land pirates and thieves Portland Oregon
2:45 pm Tue the 6th Jan. I was doing commercial pest control at the Logus
BLDG 523 SE Grand. I was in the BLDG for about 10min, when I returned and
found my commercial Van gone. I located my van at the Retriever lot on 1515
NW Quimby. Those guys were sitting behind two gates and 4 inches of
Plexiglas. I was told it would cost $171 to get my van back along with my
ID, phone and credit cards that was in the van. I discover that a bank deposit including cash and
checks ready for my last stop at the bank was gone. I told them about the
money missing and they physically removed me from the lot. I was left out on
the street with no phone, no ID and no money and my daughter was waiting to be
picked up from day care. I use a phone at Lucky labs restaurant
up the street to call the police. The police showed up two hours later and
took a report and did nothing more. Soon after that I was forced to sign a
credit card slip with my number on it now for $192 in order to get my van
back; my credit card and ID was in their possession the whole time. Once I got my Van back
I canceled my credit card and disputed the Retriever charge with my bank as extortion and
theft . I also had to change my business banking checking account because of
the missing checks. These guys at Retriever are the lowest level of
slime and bottoms feeders!!!!! This is extortion, coercion and theft.

FU? What a maroon, as Bugs Bunny would probably say...lol.
Now, for one, I don't work, nor have I ever worked for Retriever Towing. Second, just because you're getting rid of rats or other pests, doesn't give your lazy butt the ability to park in a fire lane. You're not an emergency vehicle.
Yes, I am known around as The Grim Tower. I've taken on this persona to deal with the people out there who feel that they can ignore laws, parking rules and regulations. I'm tired of all the crap that people like you try to blame shift onto tow drivers like myself, so now, I hunt, I look for you and those like you...I met out justice and make people pay when they deserve to. Had people been able to man up to their mistakes and take responsibility, the need for my presence wouldn't be there. I have been angered to existence...I have been created by people like you. Just as the Grim Reaper carries a message and hands out just desserts, so do I. If you park illegally or improperly, if you're a scoff law breaker or just a jerk...I will find you, tow you and you WILL PAY ME.

All I was doing is trying to keep Norway Rats from running all over your parking lot that you towed me from. You guys have found a loop-hole in the system to steal cars and hold them for ransom. Oh did I say that the other tenants around your lot are flipping the bill for me get rid of the rats!. Retriever towing are the bottom feeders of the towing industry and hire tow truck drivers that are the same. Also your login name " thegrimtower" says it all.

I'm not sure why your van was towed as you really didn't say anything. Were you in a fire lane? If you were, just being pest control service doesn't give you permission to park in a fire lane.
As to the missing checks, deposit....not sure about that. Extortion? Hardly, IF you parked where you shouldn't. Like I said, can't say much as you didn't share much.
