Show Notes
Paul Rumery, a 50-year-old from Sanford, Maine, faces eight charges for operating a fake commercial driving school, defrauding students of $28,100 since early 2024. Despite a shutdown order in June, he continued operating, leading to arrest warrants and unresolved cases. Students were left without licenses or refunds, while a legitimate driving school owner reported lost customers due to Rumerys price undercutting. Rumery allegedly used Hannaford Supermarkets online system to fake-sign students for road tests, leaving learners permits expired. Multiple ex-students confirmed the scams continuation post-shutdown, and Rumery remains unresponsive to reporters attempts to reach him.
