A Special Letter from Phoenix Automotive Cores
 To: Our friends, loyal customers, and respected competitors,
Greetings to all of you. I hope your year is manageable (profitable?) as we head towards November.
I thought I would make you all aware of some scams involving catalytic converters. There are certain converters that some brokers are selling that may not be what they appear to be. As an example, there are some converters that have come into the market from Europe that appear very similar to converters here in the states. Many of these converters will have you cussing in German or Hebrew if you know the language. We have run assays on many of these and there are some that contain no precious metals at all. Of course we had to learn this the hard way through men like Ron Cohen and others who were kind enough to take our money and then stare in disbelief to learn the product they sell is not what the buyer believes it to be. They repeat this over and over and continue to claim that they are just trying to make a living and did not want to cheat anyone. Believe me - they don't give refunds.
On Monday October 26th, one of our customers in New England made arrangements to buy several thousand converters from a guy he did not know. Fortunately he called to ask our help in the deal. Before the purchase he sent us pictures of the material and we immediately recognized it as low grade catalyst. He would have suffered about two hundred thousand dollars in losses. How many of those can any of us take? We do not know the company involved in this scam. What we do know is that there are three names that may have some connection to this. The first man was identified as Jose Martinez and has some business relationship to a Kevin and Bob from the Houston area. Since all name are very common it will take some time to identify them.
It is our goal to protect ourselves and our customers from such unethical and immoral scams. In the process we feel it our duty to let even our competitors know what we have seen and experienced. Together, I believe, we can help protect each other and expose those who wish to harm or exploit us. Whether you are our current customer, friendly competitor, or other business peer, please accept our heartfelt thanks for considering this message and working with us to promote healthy relationships and rooting out those that seek to defraud any of us.
Respectfully,
Jay Robie
CEO Phoenix Automotive Cores and Phoenix Group Metals, LLC
Have you seen this person? The suspected CAT rat.
