seriously.. or put the money in an escrow account to negotiate the sale. You don't just wire that kind of money before seeing or taking possession of the product.
@@SilencedByRU-vid, generally speaking you are correct, but there are still a few honest and trustworthy dealers out there who always deliver for and to their clients, and after a while those clients do start wiring them large sums of money even without having seen the product in person, and those dealers always deliver; however, I truly believe that only 0.1% of dealers in the World are honest and trustworthy.
don't think he was that rich... thought about killing himself over losing $275k. Even if he was, the fault's not with the people who's worked hard all their lives to buy something they've always wanted. Geesh, give him a break.
Sometimes these sleazy auto salespeople depend on rich people being too embarrassed for getting ripped off that they don’t persue a refund. The buyer admitted he was suicidal. Had that happened maybe nobody would’ve known about the transaction and the family would not have known
No doubt. If I'm gonna drop over a quarter million on a car, you best damn well believe I will be driving that car before anything beyond a $1000 deposit to hold it would change hands.
If you have damn near 300k for a vehicle…a few hundred more for a turn around flight shouldn’t be that hard to muster. That ‘convenience’ is very costly.
True but we don’t know why he just didn’t come here. Maybe he’s unable to fly due to medical..maybe even afraid of flying..etc, we just don’t know. I pray he gets his money back.
@@xavierd3298 maybe he has an exotic car rental business. With that much money being scammed, it basically means bankruptcy for small business owners like him.
It’s amazing how easy it is to get away with it! The cops don’t care, banks don’t care, credit card companies don’t care. When your money is gone…..it’s GONE! When you see people murdered with supposedly NO motive, it’s usually because they stole money.
Everything is a scam these days because most scammers never get caught, and most people who were scammed are too emabarrassed to go to the authorities once they have been scammed. Unfortunatley, this is our world today.
@@me6057I'm 54, lived in Miami all my life. I can tell you from growing up on the beach the Jewish, Russian and Italian mob are in full effect in South Florida. You are right, they are not like in the movies but they are most certainly criminals and connected. Many of the Asian Massage Parlors you see everywhere in Florida are owned by organized crime whether that Chinese, Russian or Italian out of New York. Now you have other Hispanic gangs like Venezuelan and ofcourse Mexican and Puerto Rican gangs all over Florida running guns, drugs and human trafficking.....
Especially a G900, it’s hard enough to get for 450k.. just to have one sitting on a lot in Florida for $275k makes absolutely zero sense. That car if it was real and physically there would have sold in seconds for 275k.
The car company will have liscense revoked. Owner will not be able to have another liscense to sell car in his name. 1st time. Slap om wrist. Second time . Near 300,000 theft. Owner finished.
Who buys a $275k luxury vehicle from a shady car lot? Did that old gueezer not have google maps and see it was a shady car lot? Luxury vehicles are bought at reputable dealers, even a broke fool like me knows that. Yeah he found that Brabus at an “unbelievable” price. That should have been his first red flag.
You're right, but I think he was just excited and jumped the gun when he saw that the Brabus was available. I'm assuming there aren't too many of them available in the open market.
Bro. How could you send that much money from just seeing something on a computer screen & not physically? That’s insane! He didn’t have anyone close to talk sense into him 😩?
You can wired that much money for cars, etc and people have for auctions, etc that was televised and seen online.. If that company name is reputable such as Mecum, etc for they have the seller and car title with them to make it happen. Otherwise, you better see it on site for yourself and company better provide title in contract, etc.
because they're rich. People place orders through phone for airplanes, houses, etc. I lost a bid to a house to an investor who called on phone from mainland here at hawaii. All cash offers always wins unfortunately.
That’s wire fraud, federal. And Sue should raise a claim at the bank. BSA/AML / fraud should have closed that Miami shop’s bank account down. And let’s not leave off elder abuse for a 78 year old..
He has “so little”……yet enough for almost a 300 grand car? What? Where are his kids? Family? Someone should be looking out for him, and checking in on him & his daily life.
Agree guys who spend that type of money usually have millions in the bank and won't feel suicidal over losing that amout. The man needs to check his priorities
If he agreed to wire 275K, why don't he fly to Florida to see this, so-called MB G- WAGON by himself & booked the vehicle in front of him back to Hawaii??. "LESSON LEARNED.
Never trust car dealerships !! One charge me $1k for warranty !! Once I notice the car had factory warranty still intact . I said give me back my money or I rearrange your face . And sure enough I got my money back .
So many things wrong here. Buying a $275K Gwagon that looks like a pimpmobile over the internet from a couple of Russians? These guys have done this before and they are still in business?
275k for a g wagon is a scam never deal with foreign owners and you can see the lot doesn't even have any dream auto collection just runned down cars like junk
@Almightycreator888 Yeah it’s crap compared to your 1800hp 6 wheel drive $500,000 wagon made with imported leather and diamond studded interior. That or you’re just jealous other people have better and nicer things than you.
I know the area where this business is located. I hope someone helps him get his money back. So sad. If he keeps telling the news media maybe they can track this guy down.
Armenians?? Look at the guy's name, it's like some Russian or Ukrainian. Definitely not Armenian ID 10-T. Plus this is in Florida, not California where the Armenians are.
He did his research before doling out a quarter of a million bucks?!?! I highly doubt it. If this scamming company has been doing this to so many people, how could he have NOT seen the reports on the company?!?! What sources did he check out exactly during his research? I think he got too excited for a few pictures of his dream car pasted on-line, all logic and rationale went out the window. What an expensive lesson!!!😱😱😱
Call the police and have the guy arrested. I doubt the car even exists. Plenty of similar scams on Facebook Marketplace, but it's for lower priced cars that also don't exist.
Some instability for sure, number one giving away that much money for a picture he saw over the internet, 2nd he wanted to off himself, clearly he can't think straight anymore 😳
It is easier faster and cheaper to get law enforcement action on shoplifters, trespassers, car thieves, etc than when a business name is the alleged thief stealing thousands or millions. Victims usually have to sue the crooks costing more money.
This is so common in Florida that they need to pass a bill that prevents this from happening. Not only from dealers but also from private sellers you seriously don’t want to buy a car in South Florida if they’re selling it, they are selling it for a reason.
unfortunately learned this the hard way as well, anytime you meet someone involved in the auto industry (sales, auto repair, etc) 9/10 they are not your friend and looking to scam you
He's from a sleepy little town up in the mountains of Maui and used to dealing with good, honest people. Poor guy. Is there some kind of Cuban mafia he can hire to take care of those Russian thugs?
Stupid buyer from Hawaii has so much money, he should of flew to Hollywood and drove the car himself back to Hawaii. Sounds like the buyer has money to burn.
Steal a $50 item at a store, and the cops show up to arrest you. Do a wire transfer scam of over $275k and the guy goes on vacation to Russia. Make it make sense
