My aunt had bought a used car with cash with an actual clean title. It was back when Nissan Maximas were in the top 5 most stolen vehicles. She was working at Lowe's one day and someone said they saw her car being towed. She ran out there and a towing company said they were repossessing it. She told them she doesn't owe anything on the car but they wouldn't listen. She called the cops and they told her it was civil matter, even though you know if were of their or their relatives 's cars being towed they would step in, and they couldn't do anything. Finally the manger at Lowe's told the towing company if they did not leave without the car he would trespass them. She found that people were stealing cars by making up false repo letters and sending tow companies in to get the cars, then taking the cars to an empty lot in another state. The thieves would then come get the car strip it for parts and leave it somewhere. The cops could have ended a stolen car ring if they had just listened, but they are lazy and won't listen.

It depends on the state. I work for a credit union in Georgia. Currently, I'm in mortgage underwriting, but I was in automobile financing for 10+ years previously. Georgia's DMV has an automated telephone service that you can call and enter in a VIN. The service will disclose the year, make, & model of the vehicle on record, as well as the owner of record, the mileage as of the last time the title was recorded, and any lienholders that appear in the DMV records. I do not know if any other states have a similar system. But, we were a small credit union, so we didn't want to handle financing out-of-state private party automobile purchases because it was so much more difficult to verify the status of the title in those cases.

Buying a used car from a dealer isn’t that much safer.

My confusion is why Navy Federal didn't secure a clear title. As a former Bank Compliance Officer my lenders were not allowed to release the funds until we had a clear title. No duplicate titles were allowed. Also, how was the duplicate title obtained. It should have been mailed to the lien holder. I have so many questions. There were a LOT of chances for this to be caught before it got this far. However, the bottom line is that the seller needs to serve time.

Although I agree, the fruad happened in one state and in one county. The victim lives in another state and another county. So you have two different counties and two different states that could ultimately file charges. And all four policing departments are likely wondering if the juice is worth the squeeze. And even Carvana's lending partner doesn't want to take a civil lawsuit out because of the expense involved with little to no likelihood of receiving even their legal expenses back. Had the victim in this case lived in the same state as where the initial fraud occurred, I suspect charges would have been placed on the person who illegally sold the vehicle. But once you cross state lines, unless there was bodily injury to a party or you are dealing with a fraud case in the seven figures so it gets headlines, the banks are likely just going to write the loss off. And yes, a case could be argued for interstate fraud which would then make this a federal case. As Navy Federal Credit Union would have used a mail carrier or electronic transfer to send the money to the victim so she could give the fraudster a cashier's check.

I have learned from my mistakes never to purchase a vehicle online again. I had a bad experience once.

I had a similar thing happen to me...I sold my car to a small used dealership. 2 years later I get a call (at work) from the Cleveland Police Department that asked me when I was going to pick up my car and pay the $1200 impound fee. I asked what car because my car was right here with me. They told me it was the 1986 Pontiac 6000 STE which I sold 2 years ago. Cleveland Police told me that it was my problem now and I had to get it cleared up because the impound fee was going up every day. I contacted the dealership I sold the car to and he said that he sold it to another dealership who then sold it to a private buyer. My name stayed on the title through 3 other owners. The original dealer I sold it to said that he would take care of it. I gave him all the phone numbers and people at the Cleveland Police. Two days later I got a call from Cleveland again and they said that it was all cleared up and to have a nice day.

How did the seller have possession of the title with a lien on the car.? The Finance Co. should have the title. Very Bizzare.

It costs a few bucks to have a car ownership traced, takes a few minutes. Never just hand someone cash who says "yeah this is my car."

The thing that blows my mind about this is that the new owner registered the vehicle under her address (else the repo company couldn't find it) so she almost certainly had to register it under her NAME as well, which would clearly indicate that the car in question was NOT owned by the scammer. Seeing as how the new owner had no financing agreement with the company filing for repo, and the car clearly belonged to someone else, repossessing a car owned by a third party should be considered theft. Instead of repoing a car owned by an innocent person, this should be felony finance fraud or grand theft or something, and the guy who sold the car should be headed to prison. But no, it is easier to go after an innocent person who won't fight, than to go after the actual guilty party.

1. The seller not supposed to have a paper title until he pays off Carvana, it should have an electronic lien. 2. Her state not supposed to register the car without transferring it from Pennsylvania DMV records. That transfer wouldn’t work if it has an electronic lien on it. 3. Her local DMV would verify the fraudulent paper title. So something was wrong. Could it be an employee at Carvana who removed the electronic lien from the title? Most likely. And they probably done it many times already using their friends.

Carvana and their finance arm are out around tens of thousands of dollars. They aren't even trying to get those tens of thousands of dollars back from the fraudulent seller. Why?

Probably because it's their fault that the fraudulent seller could clean/wash the title so well that neither the DMV nor Barbara's bank noticed anything. Tl;dr: If it wasn't on at least partially on Carvana they'd at least pursue the fraudulent seller - which they don't. Mmh.

@carriebartkowiak

Ай бұрын

1. Each state has their own way of doing it. I'm in Virginia, and here you get a temporary title from the dealer the day you buy the car, and then you get the official one (that looks just like the one they were waving around in the video; green/white and fancy decorations at the top) in the mail from the DMV a few days later. If you bought it with financing, on the title it will CLEARLY say that the car is under a LIEN, and along with your name and address, it'll have the name and address of the finance company. It stays that way until you fully pay the loan off, at which point you get what's called a "pink slip" - it's an official receipt from the loan company saying the loan is paid in full (and yes, it's on pink paper). You can take the pink slip to the DMV, and they'll re-issue you a "clean" title showing that there's no longer a lien on the car and that you own it outright. I've lived in 6 different east coast states and it's been the same in all of them. Maybe it's different out west? 2. and 3. - Yep. The DMV *is* the state though, so these two points are saying the same thing. A flag should have popped up while she was standing at the DMV counter, as it's tied to the VIN.

DMV should be liable since they reregistered this car and not flag it

Not really a happy ending. The seller should have been sued or arrested. The DMV and insurance company failed to see if the owner did surrender the car and plates. Carvana and the financial loan company failed to tow the car when it was in possession of the delinquent seller. 🤦‍♂️

Glad she got the car back you can tell she loves that car and will take good care of it

The fake seller is going to jail

With that price there has to be some questions, luckily she was able to retrieve back her property

Kudos to the News Team, Great Ending!!!

Seller needs to face criminal charges

This happened to me as well. The only difference was that the car was stolen and the person who sold it to me, stole it from me as well

The ONLY reason that the corporations did the right thing is because the local news was exposing their bad behavior of being unwilling to help the lady in the first place. Even though the fraudster did wrong, what the companies did was way worse. sadly, the real problem people will never be held accountable. That is because we live in a very broken society.

I would buy a used car from a local person, subject to a mechanic’s inspection. But sight unseen from FB marketplace? No way.

I'd only buy from a dealer, and I'd do a CarVertical check on it.

This is why we need to be careful.

1. Never buy from private party. 2. She should have checked with local DMV in original state. 3. The bank and the DMV should have verified the title. 4. if it was too cheap. It was.

A 9 years old car is your dream car? That's crazy... and he should be in jail

Carfax does not always have proper car info if its not reported or entered. Someone that worked at an autobody shop said this.

if you do the bulk of your work yourself it won't show up on carfax as being maintained either.

That is why you don’t buy from crap sites like both of them

As soon as they said private seller along with the video title... That already said it all.

How did her bank and the DMV not catch this?....SMH

because she bought it from PA and she transferred it to VA clearly PA didn't check for the lien before allowing VA to issue new title.

One comment lurk

The rightful owner of the car was the finance company that arranged a mortgage to the seller. If this is the fact, how was the seller able to sell it to a third party ?

The seller should be arrested and charged! 😡This is ridiculous he hasn’t been charged yet. 😡 If he gets away with it, then we will start to see more and more cases like this… I hope he gets charged soon this guy is a criminal!

Wait. Did she get that car for $25,000 then? That’s fucking crazy.

Good deal

I don't understand why and how she was allowed to keep it. I suppose Carvana has written it off on their taxes as a loss or an uncollectable debt. Or perhaps made some kind of insurance claim.

Yeah, luckily they were willing to take the loss rather than fork it over to her, especially seeing all she’d gone through already.👍

Carvana/Bridgecrest are out tens of thousands of dollars (since they neither have the car nor the money) - yet they don't even pursue the fraudulent seller. (4:33) Which implies that those shenanigans with the washed title might only have been possible because they did sth in a way they weren't supposed to...so they want the attention to go away. And of course TV (attention).

@david672orford

Ай бұрын

Hard to say because this story is not clear about what the seller did to "wash" the title. Either he sold it with the lien somehow hidden, or he sold it after somehow tricking the DMV into dropping the lien from the title. In the first case Carvana gave the car back to avoid the bad publicity that would come from making an innocent woman pay for their customer's fraud. In the second case, Carvana gave the car back because, with the lien gone, they had no legal right to take it. I lien fraudulantly removed is still gone.

Because car is legally in her name in VA the PA title is void at that point.

she needs to sue the Repo truck for an illegal tow

Why does my heart and prayers go out to this woman….

Then she took it for a service and immediately realized she couldn't afford it

My father and uncle know what to look for when they inspect cars: when they know something is off about the car in question.

"If it sounds too good to be true, it probably is"

Many cars end up on Craigslist because they can’t sell them honestly any other way.Most Craigslist sellers lie about condition or other important details.CYA when buying an expensive car.This lady was just plain lucky.

The lady has some cool looking furniture too.

I would never recommend anyone buy a used luxury vehicle, especially a very late model. I've owned luxury vehicles for 15 years, I'm on my 3rd Acura. Luxury vehicles like mine do not depreciate in value very quickly, so buying a used one is almost as expensive as buying a new vehicle, in fact, the one I just bought in December was negotiated below the price of a used car a dealer near my home tried to sell me, I thought they'd lost their minds, I flew to another state that gave me nearly 7k of MSRP and drove back home. Only ignorant people pay sticker price.

Just curious does the funds spent to go to another state and paying to register an out of state car counteract the 7,000 of MSRP?
