An auction scammer looks to rip someone off for over $100,000 with this doctored up Lamborghini Urus 

Ooooor just buy a clean title car

I sure would like to see more of these exposure type videos. Your skill in rebuilds is unquestionable, with attention to detail that exceeds the original manufacturers. It is always interesting to see what lengths these unscrupulous shysters will go to,with the intent to con people. Hooray for the good guys like yourself. Best wishes from the UK 🇬🇧

Thanks for your honesty. The world needs more people like you Scott.

Hi Scott. SalvageRebuilds had an experience with a Lamborghini here in the UK. I think from memory it had been written off twice in the states & had been bodged before appearing on a Copart sale here with no apparent damage. I think it appeared as HPi clear ( like your clear title) Got to be so damn careful. Too many unscrupulous people about. Glad you're one of the good guys, thats how i found you, repairing that god awful customers blue Chevrolet that had a bodged OS repair! 😳

You can see the disconnected hood latch cables hanging near the headlight on 11:25, so nobody can easily open it up. Scammer may have pulled the drivetrain and/or engine bay parts and you'll never know. Imagine being the person with the current $60k bid watching this video.

Love your channel. I watch every Friday because you're entertaining, and you make fixing those seemingly hopeless wrecks look easy! Thanks for the Tuesday video!

You are the best Scott. Thanks for teaching everyone with the knowledge you have gain over 30 years. and yes please, more like this.

Great video Scott. It's good to keep shedding light on potential scams.

This is public service broadcasting Scott. Thanks for shining a light and educating your subscribers. I don't know if the channel is about humour or car repairs, either way it's fun. Thank you from London UK.

Please do more of these Scott. With you being so honest, of what is going on in this business, we need to know. Thank you.

Scott definitely like the video. I am car guy for over 50 years It is so nice to see someone as sharp as you taking time and using your life experience to try to help others and squash fraud! Bravo thanks and keep this kind of content as well as your build videos I look for toward the end of each week coming our way. Thank you!

Please do more like this - seeing them from your viewpoint is super informative, and knowledge is always a good thing to have more of.

Great video nice to see someone showing the dodgy side of repairs, hope you do more like this

A huge help Scott, you have given me a ton of knowledge this can be applied to all car buying definitely a great video. Keep the videos coming and definitely keep the sarcasm coming too! Love them both!

Thank you Scott! I really appreciate you sharing your knowledge with us. I will not be buying from any auction but I sure do like knowing what to look for and what to look out for in buying a automobile! And yes I remember the "mistake truck" but you made a Rose from that Lemon! I appreciate you and I for one love what you do on your channel! 👍💯

I have to say Scott, I have watched your videos for years. In a past life I worked salvage yards and worked with alot of rebuilders. I have seen a lot of the sketchy and scary stuff they have done. You are not even close to that. Your work is outstanding and would 100% buy a car you have rebuilt. One of the few that have morals, not lazy, and challenge yourself to do the job correctly. I tip my hat to a true professional. Keep up the awesome work and show the honest and knowledgeable side of rebuilders.

Thanks for your honesty. The world needs more people like you

I watch all your videos, but I really enjoyed this one pointing out the dangers of auction purchases for the uninitiated.

To be honest. This is why I really like your videos. You are honestly doing the right thing in the business that you do by repairing these cars and trucks. You repair them as if they’re going to be your own personal car. I’ve said it before I would definitely by a repaired vehicle from you if I lived in your neck of the woods. Seeing a video like this shows your integrity and morals of being a good person. Much respect man! I look forward to all the content you bring to your channel. 💯👍

Scott thanks for sharing to show more than just repairing it. I will say your videos are always worth watching. Thanks for sharing. Stay safe and be well.

Love these kind of videos - almost as much as the rebuild videos, really interesting. Top job!!

Love this video! Very informative, and it reminds us that not everyone is as honest as you are. Knowledge is power. I’d love to see more of these mid week treats…as long as you’re making money off them, and it doesn’t take away from your regular rebuilds, because I know you’re poor 😏.

AWESOME Scott - Great change to the standard rebuild content and provide some reality. With so many crap rebuild channels out there, this is a breath of fresh air!

These videos are great. I would watch every one you put out on this topic. Keep up with the great content you put out for us to watch.

That's why I like watching you. If I was to ever buy a car that has been wrecked I would definitely buy one from you. You show what it looked like before and show how you fix it right. I say this with confidence you are the only one I would buy one from . Thank you for your honesty.

I hope you continue to make videos like this pointing out doctored cars at auction. Love your rebuilding videos.

Very helpful Scott. It's great to see someone like you take a stand against these scumbags. Cause there's an awful lot of them out there. This is one of the (many) reasons your fan base is loyal. You got balls of steel.

Great video! I have been thinking about buying auction cars and this information really opened my eyes on what to look for before bidding on one of these vehicles. Thanks for sharing and I would like to see more of these video's.

This was extremely interesting. Well done. I would totally watch at least one more

Thank you for educating others. You Sir are truly an honest man! Keep up the great work!!

Very informative vid Scott. Thanks for posting. Ive always been interested in where you find your cars to repair.

Great video. Please don't quit your regular video's but I would like to see one of these every now and then.

Scott, I appreciate your making this video. I know that “caveat emptor” is the rule for buying anything these days, but what jokers like this are doing should be criminal. Keep shining the light of truth on operations like this one.

You have a unique insight into a world few people know anything about. I think more videos like this would be a great idea. Thanks!

Scott it's nice if you to bring this to people to beware .

I would enjoy more of these exposé type videos but whatever you make is enjoyable to watch.

Dude I don't know or care about car rebuilds but I watch your videos because you're a master at what you do. Not everyday you come across people that are the best in their field.

Love your videos, great information.😊

I really liked the video as it was a change up from what you typically do and it gives most of us who don’t know how these auctions work some insight into how they work. I’m no where near your skill level but I have some auto repair skill and a nice shop to work out of. I’ve often wondered how to go about buying a car or pickup from an auction to rebuild… without getting burned. Traveling to an auction site with a trailer isn’t a problem for me. I used to watch other RU-vid rebuilder channels that had a focus on trucks and cars most of us can afford to buy. Once they started rebuilding the over the top expensive cars I quit watching. Anyway I’m looking forward to the next rebuild but it would be nice to see these educational videos once in a while too from someone who knows what he is talking about.

It's interesting to hear an expert's view on buying auction cars. I would like to see more of these type videos, I liked it alot. 👍

This was my favorite episode so far. Very informational and helpful for anyone buying cars from the auction.

Great content as always Scott! i’d love to see more videos like this.

Excellent video Scott Keep them coming!

Love all your videos Scott you are truly a master of your craft, I’d love to see some more stuff like this too it’s always interesting to see how far people will go to scam someone-also where’s mr spotty been ???

I don’t repair cars (other than routine stuff on my own vehicles) but I watch your videos for the entertainment value. Little did I know that would come in handy one day. I almost bought a card that has been “repaired” by someone. Thanks to your videos I recognized the shortcuts and signs of poor craftsmanship. Thanks Scott

Hey Scott, that background looks awesome. Great effect with the lighting!

Appreciate this content, it's educational and helps all of us understand what to keep our eyes peeled for. Thanks

Thanks Scott. I like this style of video too. You make some key points on what to look for and research before making a financial mistake. I’ve made a few, but luckily not that high of a price range.

Thank you sooooooooo much. I was looking in to get my first project car and I was thinking about going that route. So yes I would love for you to make more videos like this so I know what to look out for in auctions.

Great video scott, I enjoy this type of content

wow thanks Scott for being you, I just like watching your videos of you repairing cars, and trucks and an occasional Mustang lol great information I hope the right people watch your video many blessings

I would really enjoy more videos like these, especially of that 2018 Denali! Thank you for sharing Scott

Good video now I know what to look for when I get to go to an auction thanks keep doing them it helps me to learn more

Very interesting analysis and provides insight and learning for us non-body repair folks. I appreciate the insight - great video! Thanks!!

This was incredibly helpful, and very informative. Loved it!

Thanks Scott for the inside info, very interesting how scams work, I would be very interested in seeing more of your scam tricks, plus i enjoy every Saturday morning ( Australian time) watching your rebuilds, you do a top job and I learn more and more... Thanks mate !!

Great video Scott, great content!

Excellent video. As usual, very informative. TYVM for sharing your knowledge and experience.

As always a great video Scott. 👍

Thank you for taking your time to teach some people that not every thing that sells on Auction is a cheap fixer . I myself got screwed and cost me $3k . Keep up the posts V

Once I saw Miami only one company came to mind. If you go to there website the vehicle is list as on hold. I guess buying anything from these people is questionable as someone who loves cars finding channels like yours is helpful to know the tricks of the game. Thanks and keep up the great work!

Yes, would like to see more of this type video. Thanks for all your videos. They are great!

Very Useful Information Scott thank you!

Great video Scott and very helpful!!

Great Vid! Thanks for posting it! very informative

Thanks Scott! Lots of information for an informed decision.

Thanks for the video Scott. I'm constantly warning people about buying 3rd party without an inspection. I only deal with cars directly from insurance for that reason. You can still get screwed on an insurance car but it's usually from the previous owner removing parts.

Very cool video. Definitely shows people what to look for as far as damage or in this case hidden damage. Also, the back-lit grill looks great!

Mid week video. Yea. I needed that Thanks Scott.

Yes, your insight is valuable to those of us that are not quite as knowledgeable regarding auction cars. Thanks!

I really enjoy all of your Videos…thanks

Thanks for the information. Keen eye for the close calls.

Thanks for the information very interesting.

Great informative video, thanks again Scott for your invaluable insight.

Thanks Scott, very helpful. More video's please.

Great video Scott, liking the new home office - GMC grill is a nice addition

Really interesting to watch to see what you evaluate as you examine the pictures, as well as the potential damage you can't see. Would watch more of these if you make them. Only downside--no gnomes, no bumper installation tool used, none of the special torque wrenches :). Thanks for posting! I enjoy watching your rebuilds

Thanks Scott! I liked the video. It was different and informative. 👍👍

Excellent info on this video. Great information. Definitely would like to see more videos like this.

I would love to see more videos like this. Thanks for putting this info out there.

Excellent. Enjoying the channel. Tks for sharing.

I love the educational video's like this because it helps us learn what all to look out for.

interesting how you break down the cost to return, makes sense when you know what you are doing , good to hear the honest approach

More of these videos Scott, thanks!!

found this video interresting, like your channel, always look out for the next video that you post, greetings from Belgium, Europe

love the video would like to see more videos like this awsome video keep the good work

You're not just a repairer, you're a top notch repairer and a top man. Good to see this type of video. I know Goonzquad's Camaro was also purchased from a scammer judging by the junk engine that was in it.

Great video. I definitely would like to see more like this or how you choose what vehicles to buy and flip

Very informative.. keep them coming

Great video, you just explained how ruthless these action cars can be. “ Let the buyer beware”. Thanks Scott!

Thanks for the heads up Scott.

You had me at "I don't fix people" 😂😂

Scott, I am very happy you did this video. I bought a 2020 GMC Denali with the Duramax diesel 4X4 from copart. It was a nightmare. it not only was doctored up. It didn't even have the correct frame, engine, transmission, transfer case and so on. The list goes on and on. I would love to send you some pictures of this truck. I have been in the body shop trade for over 35 years. I had to fight with Copart. They claim they didn't know this truck was doctored up this bad. There position was "as is". However, I also work with law enforcement so I was able to prove that they could not legally sell this truck because the frame alone had the wrong vin number. Not to mention it was a short bed frame on a long bed truck. Needless to say everything was welded, drilled etc. To make it look good for the pictures. Did I also mention they also took ALL the electrical out of the truck including under the dash and door panels? Again, I would love to share this story to you personally to help people out there to beware. One more thing, remember I said they wouldn't have sold that truck if they knew about all the problems ? Well, 8 months later I found the same truck try and go through again at the same Copart. Lesson learn is you can't trust even the auction. Do your research !!! I hope to hear from you, Ron

Awesome video. It has been a number of years since I was buying at Copart or IAA, but the same old tricks are evidently still going. I used to buy just Hondas and Acuras, mainly performance versions to part out, and expanded to include Subarus for a bit, and basically "for sale by private seller" was a do not bid unless it was basically scrap price. the number of cars with engines that had been swapped either for a base model, or had a blown engine (or flood car engine) swapped in was staggering 10 years ago. Keep these vids up sir! Also FREE MR SPOTTY

Scott, I absolutely loved the content. Great job, it's such a phenomenal business and hobby when done right. Your rebuilds are like my Dad's, never cutting corners. Guys like this ruin the business and put a bad taste in everyone's mouth. I'd love for you to do another. P.s. I bought a 2011 Subaru Legacy with 41k, couldn't see much damage, fender, hood, rad core support. Well you guessed it, both rails were kinked. They heated and popped bumper back out and bolted it up. Just ridiculous!

Thank you. Love to see more videos like these.

I love this type of video. Keep up the good work. It’s amazing someone would pay that amount of money for such a pile. 😮

great info! thanks

Good info Scott, thanks 👍

I really enjoyed this video. It was a tutorial on what to look out for and pretty entertaining as well.
