CAR SCAMMING IN A CRAZY SPIRAL
With the development of technology in our time, vehicles, real estate and many goods and services are now sold by advertising on digital platforms and websites. So much so that most timekeepers and sellers are selling and buying without seeing each other. They are exploited by some malicious people, caused by the advancement of technology in this way, and defraud the citizen. In this short article, we want to point out a few aspects that citizens should pay attention to in order not to be victimized by scammers.
In the carp spiral scam, he usually calls the buyer saying that he will buy a car that is on the ad, says that he will buy the car, and he will throw it into the hood, then tell him to remove the car from the advertisement. Then he puts this car on the advertisement himself and tries to sell it to someone else at a lower price. When he finds a buyer with this unreal advertisement, the real owner of the vehicle brings the seller and the buyer together and, stating that he cannot come somehow, makes the payment sent to his account, victimizing both the real seller and the real buyer. In order not to encounter such situations, it is necessary to pay attention to the following points;
· Pay attention to whether goods and services sold by posting on the Internet are a secure site,
· Do not purchase vehicles outside secure sites, especially for car purchases. Certain secure sites are available for this.
· Ask the seller for information about the vehicle you purchased. Ask for a license, a photo and an expert report if available. So contact the seller directly.
· Go and see the car you are going to buy in person. If he is somewhere far from you and you do not have the opportunity to go, ask someone you trust for help. If this is not possible, hire a lawyer if necessary.
· Do not assign the cost of the vehicle that you will receive in car purchases to the account of other persons, regardless of what is said outside the account of the licensee. Make the payment process after asking the notary for information such as identity, license, etc.
- Do not trade in any way with people who say that he will not be able to come by himself in the sale, or that someone will throw away the money other than himself.
However, if for a moment you are scammed due to your negligence or negligence, immediately call law enforcement to the scene of the incident and take action to the account to which you sent the vehicle and payment. If you are defrauded in the purchase of vehicles, real estate or any goods, of course, contact a lawyer and ask for legal support. Otherwise these scammers may run away from you.
