Did he lock the latch to give the string something to tie on to?

Done that a couple of times in my old car that didnt have anything to tie on to.

Have you tried unlocking the boot lock (either key or fob)?

roohbarbs right, theres no damage to your car, simply unlock the latch, press handle etc and it will unclick.

very rare for string to damage metal parts. Take a photo and show them.
