Tow-truck drivers are taking advantage of shaken drivers involved in car crashes by convincing them to hand over their cars before charging them thousands of dollars to retrieve their vehicles. A Southern California woman fell victim to the scheme, forking over $3,000 to get her car out of a tow yard after police said she was scammed by a driver, ABC7 reported. Brittany Williams said she got into a wreck, but before she was able to contact the police or her car insurance provide, a tow-truck driver arrived at the scene.
