    So you're saying its a scam to drive a car for someone else and not get paid for it? Are you a very incompetent getaway driver?

    Hey man, I'm sorry if that sounded bad. Seriously though, could you repeat what you said in your first post in English? It's very difficult to understand.

    If I got this right, you did a job where you got a taxi to a car, then you were given the keys to it. You then drove it to another location, where upon arrival, you didn't get paid as agreed, correct?

    If that is the case, I have never heard of it as a scam, I'd be more suspect of why the other person couldn't drive it themselves.

    Is there no such service available (at least in Dublin) where if you go somewhere where you didn't expect to drink, but eventually did, you can ring the guys and they will come to collect your car and drive you in it to your home?
    If there isn't there definitely should be.

    Yeah there is/was! They'd spin out in a little honda moped and put it in your boot and drive you home, pretty clever. Don't think it took off though... If I can remember the name, I'll post it.
