Im so sorry this happened to you, some thing like this happened to a friend of ours, he got a nice car from a car lot an dwas making pmts on it and when he got down to the last few pmts he went to pay them and they were closed down, there was a man there cleaning and said they closed up and he didnt know where they went. so now my friend has a car and no title. |
oh no! that's so bad! I'm sorry that happened to you. I hope there is still soemthing that can be done... |
Jodi -- I can offer no advice only say that I am so very sorry. For the life of me, I can't understand how scummy people can cheat good honest folk out of their hard earned money. I wish you the best of luck in getting justice! I happen to like the justice in the Toby Keith song -- Beer For My Horses :) |
Wow thats terrible, I hope something can be done, so sorry. |
i would call a tv station here there is contact 6 news and they get to the bottom of things alot faster then we can plus it will help to put out a warning about scams like this |

Locally, good law Q&A are posted in the paper as well as a couple of lawyers that visit the local TV news stations. Sadly, this type of case comes up far too often and, as I understand it, it is a problem nationally. One case that got a lot of local attention - A large store specializing in baby merchandise continued to take large money orders right up until their bankruptcy. At that time, they had over $300,000 in outstanding orders. Because they filed bankruptcy, all those people were cheated. Can you imagine the heartbreak and devastation this caused these poor people in this situation, some of which I'm sure, were going to be parents for the first time and could be out $1000's?! Again, I'm very sorry for your loss. I will be watching this thread in hopes of seeing your situation resolved in your favor. |
AWWW I am sorry this happened to you! In our state, these dealers must be Bonded... this may help you recover something? I dont know how things work there but it is worth checking into... call the State Motor vehicle department, maybe that would help you.. again, I am sorry this happened to you. |
One thing to think about is in the future get a traditional car loan... that way the bank will ck that there is no lien of it because they want to be able to reposses it if payment is not made... I'm not sure how an individual would go about checking that on their own... Maybe contacting the DMV before the purchase... It is really scary what ppl will do for money... I'm just so sorry, but I really think that what you need is a miracle... |
So,sorry this has happened to you!!! Hope things work out for you. |
Im so sorry this happened to you ,i would call the better business bureau,and have them investigate this matter maybe they can help you to get your money back ,but for now i would hide the truck until you get things resolved. |
Here is the existing report on the BBB:( How can a company get away with this? http://www.sacramento.bbb.org/common...ompid=37001510 |
I am just now seeing this, that is repulsive, how can people live with themselves? Boy Jodie, I sure hope something can be done, that is a heck of a lot of money.....:( |

It really is just awful. My husband and the lien company went round and round last night. They are coming to get their vehicle and i really don't think there is anything we can do about that.How do you sue a company that filed bankruptcy?:( We are out a vehicle and the money now. I don't know what we are going to do. It just totally sucks, i have no idea what my hubby is going to drive. And what a bad time of year to have this happen. |
I am so sorry this has happend to your family. I hate that trust is becomming such an uncommon thing. If you can find out what court they filed the bkrptcy with, you may be able to file a claim and at least get in the line of people that they owe. Hopefully, after all is said and done, you will be able to retreive some of the money owed to you. |
Yes, I was afraid of that. Again, I'm very sorry. The advise of an attorney may be worth the expense to confirm your fears (and therefore resign yourself to your fate) or you might try seeking it elsewhere on the web.... Maybe start here? http://www.askmehelpdesk.com/money-services/ Don't we all feel so warm and fuzzy knowing our elected legislators are taking care of us by debating bills concerning hate crimes (hey, these laws and punishments ALREADY exist!), illegal aliens (what part of 'illegal' is so difficult to understand????), gay marriage, flag burning, homeless people, traffic cameras, etc., etc..... everything BUT the VERY real and the most serious problems and exploitations that face normal, everyday working class people. As I've said, these are the stories that get me riled, so sorry about the soapbox. Has anyone else noticed we're all complaining but nothing is getting done? It's time to wake up, people. |
My gosh, Jodie...this is terrible! I can't believe people can get away with doing something like this. I hope and pray that it can somehow be straightened out in your favor! That's a heck of a lot of money! I'm so sorry this happened to you! |
oh no jodie! i can't believe this happened .. sorry i have been MIA on yt lately. I hope there is someone out there that can help you .. i can't really provide any advice, but know my htoughts and prayers are with you and your hubby ... this is F*#$% up ... :mad: those pple better get what they deserve....argh |

The vehicle has a lien on it, therefore they don't own it. Obviously, neither did the dealer. They were scammed. |
My ears have really perked up about scams now and i've been hearing so much of this happening, last night on the news they were reporting on a lady that bought a wood burning stove and to have it delievered and installed. Two weeks went by and no stove, she found out they filed bankruptcy after the purchase. She talked to an attorney but she's out the money.This must be the thing to do now. We're going to get to a point of not being able to buy anything except from major stores. Sorry ma and pa places...the scammers are ruining it for you... |
Same for us here about Paypal. too many times we've been hacked. too many bad sellers. so we'll not use them period. ever again. so much stuff on YT I'd love to buy. but will not get Paypal. so unless the store or owner will take a Postal Money Order. or direct without PP credit card. I'll not shop there. We lost $400. to PP fraud. never again. tyty |
Wow, I've been following this thread hoping there was a happy resolution. I am totally shocked! I had no idea this could happen. I am so sorry y'all are going through this. |
Actually, I don't think 'scam' is the right word here. 'Scam' would indicate an illegal method in which to trick a person(s) out of (usually) money. This method, on the other hand is perfectly legal. |
I am sooo sorry Jodie...I was hoping for a better outcome for you.......this is just horrible! Thoughts and prayers go out to you my friend! :justahug: |
Ha this been mentioned Jody? |
It seems like the police would get involved in this,are they? It is down right fraud! |
Oh girl so sorry about this, different agencies like PD, CHP they have officers that are in charge of car thiefs and stuff like that, have you ask to speak with any of them? I send you a pm:( |
