Reinbeaux: You have ALOT to learn here. Whenever a dealer lies to you the FIRST time, get up and WALK OUT! You are under NO OBLIGATION to them! What did you do? When buying a used car, you were actually going to just "get in and look"? Incredible! They proposed to use as you called it a "fake agency" to lie about your income....AND YOU WENT ALONG WITH THAT????????????????????????????????? You said they never told you who was doing the financing. Did YOU even read the paperwork? What's the price of the car? NO, its not 300-400 per month! Thats the monthly payment! LEARNING POINTS 1. At the FIRST sign of fraud or poor treatment, WALK OUT! You are the customer, you need to be treated like royalty! 2. If you want to buy a used car, have your own mechanic check it out FIRST and then DO NOT sign anything or put any money down until and unless ALL problems have been fixed and checked again by your mechanic. 3. READ all your paperwork BEFORE you sign anything! How basic is this? If you don't understand what you are signing have somebody YOU brought along explain it to you. Don't EVER ask the salesman explain it to you. If you don't have someone with you who understands the paperwork, ask the dealer to make copies BEFORE you sign. Take them home and FIND SOMEBODY you trust to read and explain. If the dealer comes up with some bogus excuse why they can't let you do this, WALK OUT! 4. The cost of the car is not "X" dollars per month. In summary, you fully went along with their scheme to defraud the lender with this fake agency. They not only defrauded the lender, they turned right around and defrauded you. Isn't that interesting!
