Please! Need Help with a scam

No pics of truck...no pics of title...no lawyers...and only TW Justice Warriors pondering this mystery.

I think the only scam going on is this thread.

 

Dumbgeon worthy?

 

Did OP pay in cash or cash equivalents? And how much did he pay?

Take it to the track.

 

checkout option #3

Yes

 

That's what I thought. Seller buys new truck and runs away. Buyer is stuck with truck and is on the hook for another $35k to bank. Or seller reports stolen and gets truck returned fully paid off by the buyer.

 

When I sold my Sequoia, the buyer paid cash. To this day I don't even know who he was.

 

People act like the bank either won't say we'll cut you a check or just repo it. The people here are nuts $500-$1000 a day for storage fees? That's the quickest way to find yourself embroiled in a lawsuit with someone that has more money and resources. What's the average daily impound fee these days?

 

Just a quick search says that Colorado is a max of $30 a day if the vehicle is under 10,000lbs

I don't know why people keep coming up with outlandish numbers as the basis for a lien. The OP is in bad shape

 

It's easy to solve other peoples problems with bad advice.

 

Yes, OP is in bad shape, but there is no reason to prematurely surrender.

BTW, $30/day is $900/mo. I suggested $1,000 - $2,000 per month, so I wasn't that far off.

When you wreck a rental car, they not only want you to pay to fix it, they also want reimbursed for lost use. If OP was to demand they pay him, it should include lost use (using standard rental rates). That will get the total into range of $2k/mo. Collecting it would be difficult, but remember he was asking for how to get the bank talking to him.

Assuming this situation is real, and not just an epic Friday thread, here is great solution (but too late for OP):

This week we're moving our insurance, and the new agent offered identify theft/ciber crime/fraud coverage for $25 year. In addition to the "identify theft" coverage, it covers general fraud. The docs gave an example of reimbursement for receiving counterfeit currency I accept in good faith.
If OP had coverage like that, he could simply go to his insurance company and tell them he was a victim of fraud.

 

Well my brain hurts

 

The bank is likely not going to flinch at paying the $900 a month fee to get back a piece of collateral that's over $30k plus. If he's thinking of backing dating the fees that's not how any of this works. There are laws regarding storage fees under the towing statue in CO. The OP is boned and needs to contact law enforcement.

 

he needs a lawyer but doenst seem to want to go after one for whatever reason. Me thinks he did something he shouldnt have as well.

 

I can’t believe I just read 11 pages of this shit

 

Yes. Start this thread.

 

Reasonable conclusion, but I for one have enjoyed the show

 

It's astonishing the amount of people on this site that give advice on subjects they truly know nothing about. Then get but hurt when you call them out on their bs.

 

If I was a criminal and thought I came up with a brilliant new scam... I might set up a burner account and post about it online, claiming to be a victim of the scam I planned to commit. You know, as a way of vetting the idea and searching for complications I might have missed.

So perhaps its not that he did something he shouldn't have. Maybe its that he intends to do something.

Oh wait, Friday is over. Maybe its too late for posts like this? I'm still new here.
