Takes your money and then doesn't do the job

Be careful of this person Mark Du Toit from DC Auto Electrical. I was looking for someone to fix my car, I thought it may be a loose bolt or something but it was the engine mountings. He came out, said it was that, and needed me to transfer money to buy the part. I did so and then stopped responding. He was supposed to buy the part on the Friday but allegedly Goldwagen didn’t have one, so we arranged for Sunday. Sunday he didn’t respond to WhatsApp, calls, FB messenger or SMS. I then commented under other posts I’d found that he’d ****med others out of money. When I did that he immediately responded he was at church (lol) despite the fact that we had a booked appointment. Since then it’s been the run around where I went to the police and the police lady called him and said she was coming to arrest him and he said he’d settle it. He then paid a portion and said he’d settle the rest with interest, which was weeks ago. He seems to take money from one job, not do it and spend the money, and then use the next job’s deposit to pay it back. He owes me just over 500 bucks, a stupid amount, but he’s taken in the thousands from others and done the same, so warning anyone else, he is not to be trusted.
