Complaint Review: Credit City Auto Sales USA Inc. - Internet

Should car buyers use commonsense when buying a car? Absolutely! Should someone with an opinion make sure he has all the facts BEFORE spouting useless advice? Absolutely! Maybe asking questions about why the scam was successful and assuming that the people involved had at least as much common sense as they do would have been more enlightening for all involved. Since my objective in writing this is to help others (not pander to those with an over-inflated sense of their own infallibility) let me give details on why this scam was effective. First, you DO get details on the vehicle including VIN number which checks out with a Carmax report which is legit. If you obtain the Carmax report otherwise than via the Credit City Auto Sales web site, the identical report comes up. In addition, when you check out the company with the Better Business Bureau and the Duns rating of the company, again the company is legit and has been in business for over 22 years. THERE IS ABSOLUTELY NOTHING WRONG WITH THE COMPANY!  The local number given for the company is real and when you actually speak to someone at that number is when they explain that the business and the inventory are all very real. The problem is that the advertising linked to the web site is off another server which directs you to send the money to them. So the crooks are using a legitimate web site and business along with its inventory to scam the public. Very clever, because everything on the web site will check out. This is for those who want to be educated about this scam, not for those who see other people's misfortune as a way to peddle comments that are meant not to help, or educate, but belittle others and in some perverse way make themselves seem superior. I would be willing to bet my professional training that J in Florida has himself been manipulated to his disadvantage in more than one situation and is not very highly accomplished. Get your self-validation where you can J, but not here. I'm trying to help others NOT bolster your self-esteem!!!

From your sarcastic (and altogether useless comment), it is clear that you consider yourself  impervious to the human traits that would make you susceptible to being scammed. So reassuring to learn of your superior intellect and keen intelligence. Since you consider yourself above the fray of the vicissitudes of life to which he rest of us mere mortals fall prey, I suggest you keep your self-elevating comments to yourself and leave the comments to those of us who have something useful to contribute. Your rebuttal does indeed reinforce the fact that we do have freedom of speech in the U.S.A. Your comment was certainly worth everything it cost you to make it! I submitted this post originally to help those who might be scammed. I suggest you find some other avenue to bolster a flailing self-esteem, other than looking down on, or putting down others. Please leave this space for those wishing to reach out to and help fellow fallible human beings.

You sent off your money to somebody you don't know to buy a car you don't even check out IN ADVANCE OF SENDING MONEY and for a car you don't even know exists!!!

 Should all car dealers be honest?  Absolutely!

Should all car buyers use common sense when buying a car?  Absolutely!
