(Sabah Newspaper, 27 January 2014)
Once upon a time, there was a company called
Yek-Tur Rent-a-Car...
In Kadıköy, Istanbul, five friends rented a store
accross from the marriage bureau and called
their company Yek-Tur Rent-a-Car. They even
set up a website in the firm's name called
'yekturizmflokiralama'.
The friends put pictures of luxury cars and yachts
on their website in order to win the trust of their
customers. Then they began collecting luxury
cars to rent for between 2,000 and 6,000 TL per
month, depending on the make of the car.
The 100 or so citizens who gave the company their
cars to rent out recently went to the firm's office in
Kadıköy in order to collect their monthly rental
payments. They found instead that the door was
locked and the firm's officials were unreachable by
phone.
The citizens then headed for the public prosecutor's
office, which has now begun an investigation into the
five officials of the firm. Police have tried to locate
the missing cars by GPS, only to receive signals from
Van, Iran and Syria. As the cars left Istanbul they even
ignored paying at toll booths along the way.
Having given their vehicles to the firm willingly, the
citizens are unable to recoup any insurance money.
