Super Stock drag racing’s John Hennessay is the President of Netstar, the parent company of Johnny Park Parking and Shuttles, Deluxe Rent-A-Car and Johnny Cars and as such is overseeing an operation that uses “False Advertisement and Deceptive Trade Practices to defraud LAX Airport consumers.
They have been charging between 13%-27% in False ACRF, Airport, misc, and un-named additional taxes or fees.
Located near LAX in Los Angeles the reach of their fraud has affected people worldwide using the far reach of the internet and the intimate relationship with #1 internet car rental booking agency – carrentals.com . Their fraud includes forgery, auto registration fraud, false advertisment and ACRF (Airport Concession Recovery Fee) fraud.
Many internet blogs lay claims to insurance fraud, failure to return deposits, false claims of damage…. and the list goes on.
Together these companies work in conjunction with carrentals.com to advertise the unfairly low prices, subsidized by the fraudulently obtained ACRF fees, on the internet. Deluxe uses sister company “Johnny Park’s” shuttles to bypass the restriction on access to the LAX Airport. They then use Johnny cars sometimes unregistered cars to rent to unsuspecting consumers who risk police harrassment.
Falsely advertised low ad pricing offset by the with the illegally charged and pocketed ACRF fee. This conspiracy to defraud is intentionally marketed to foreign and interstate travelers thus creating a strategic target of victims with limited recourse.
IT IS MY BELIEF THAT THEY HAVE COMMITED FRAUD, FORJURY, FALSE ADVERTISEMENT, DECEPTIVE and UNFAIR TRADE PRACTICES, INTERSTATE WIRE FRAUD
They have shown shameless disregard of the law by continuing these behaviors, renaming the charges, dispite the light being brought to the activities.
JUST LAST MONTH –
They mass e-mailed advertisement to their customers stating that due to a special agreement with the LAWA that they no longer are charging the ACRF Fee like their competition and they are passing the savings to their customers.
THIS IS A COMPLETE SHAMELESS LIE…. LAWA representatives confirm that they are exploiting a loophole to gain access to the airport grounds and have never had any agreement with the LAWA. The charging of this fee is illegal under deceptive and unfair business practices, the collection of this fee reserved only for the LAWA violates Business and Professions Codes. This also make them guilty of unfair business practices against the other companies that “MUST” pay the 10% ACRF fees.
Corporate Research indicates $3-5 million in sales this means 13-27% of this is fraudulent.
