So maybe this is why I’m having such a hard time getting a scooter?
FBI executes search warrant at the Scooter Store.
The Scooter Store employs about 1,200 people at its New Braunfels headquarters and about 1,800 overall, Zipp told the Express-News earlier this month. The company laid off 150 people earlier this month and 220 people in September.
The search warrant comes as The Scooter Store has been grappling with changes in its business model. Power-mobility devices have come under scrutiny as part of a crackdown on Medicare fraud. Concerns have been raised that the devices are being prescribed to people who don’t need them.
And maybe it’s a good thing that I’m not using them to get my new wheels, although I did try many years ago.
