So it appears that at some point someone from the company drove on the toll road. Now this road works by photographing your license plate and then sending the bill to the house where the vehicle is registered.
I had gone into the office to try to find a file I was looking for and saw this letter sitting on top of the desk.
A brief excerpt that I can remember states:
"We have contact the police and there is no record of your vehicle having ever been stolen. If you could either provide us with a copy of the police report or pay us, that would be great"*
Who, upon receiving a bill they don't want to pay, thinks the best advice is to lie to say that their vehicle had been stolen? In the good idea, bad idea world I live in, this would fall under the bad idea. Not only did they get caught in the lie, they now owed more money.
Here is some advice - if you are going to lie to get out of paying something, make sure it is not a lie that can be easily followed up on by a simple phone call.
*I might have ad lib'ed that last part.
