Okaloosa Regional Airport (Fraud?)

As promised in the blog entitled Q-line scam here is the first of supporting documents that suggest a scam of fraud and misleading marketing is occurring. If you log onto www.local.nwfdailynews.com and search the location of Fort Walton Beach, FL. you should be able to find a list of the available taxi and/or airport transportation. The ones of particular interest are Black &Gold Taxi, Yellow Cab Company, Gator Taxi, Elite Cab Service, Buck's Shuttle Service, Dave's Bayside Airport Shuttle & Taxi and Bulldog Express Shuttle. All of these companies claim to be located, according to the map link, on the corner of Green Street and Bob Sikes Blvd. in Ft. Walton Beach. This is not true. If a physical inspection of this area is done all you will find at this location is vacant lots that are over-grown with vegetation and a run-down trailer and a old cylinder-block house sitting on them. What is going on here except fraud? If you look close at the phone numbers Black&Gold Taxi, Gator Taxi, and Elite Cab Service all have the same phone number listed. If they are the same, Why would a legitimate operation have three different buisness names listed at an obviously bogus location? A simple search at the property appaisers web site for Okaloosa county Florida will show us the current owner of the property in question. How about it law enforcement?
