Can the repo man or tow truck company spray paint cars?

my brothers car was spray painted with the words "tow" on the door and the window at the mall. can this be a tow truck company? he owes his last 2 payments on the car could it be the repo man?

1. I don't think they're allowed to deface the vehicles. Sometimes, they'll mark the cars with that stuff that car lots use that can be gotten off with a razor or something, but I doubt that they're allowed to damage the car like that.
2. Repo man would not spray the car, he would just take it as fast as possible. Probably security sprayed the car (with water soluble paint) for the tow company to take.
3. no it was probably a jerk trying to be funny if a repo guy sees your car they will take it and a tow truck too they just take the cars they dont spray paint them cuz it will damage the paint on the car and they can be sue and i know they wouldn't want that
4. They would use a wax marker or water soluble paint so as not to damage the vehicle or cost money to repair for the bank. Sounds like a vandal but you never know.
5. No, I think it was probably someone doing it as a prank. A tow company would not do that, nor a repo man. Someone who knows your brother and that he owes for the car, might do that. Just sounds like pure vandalism to me.
6. I DON'T EVEN THINK SO AND JUST WHY WOULD THEY DO THAT, IT MAKES NO SINCE, YOU MUST HAVE PARKED THE VEHICLE ILLEGAL OR YOU HAVE SOME ENEMIES.
