Elizabeth of Oak Park had a clear vision for her retirement: hair up, top down and sitting smugly behind the wheel of a 1966 Volkswagen Karmann Ghia.
"They sent, boy, I'd say it's about 45 photos. So I thought to myself, ‘OK, how can this be fake?'" said Elizabeth."You would have a chance for 10 days to check it out with your mechanic etc. They keep the payment in escrow, and upon your approval or not, they would receive the funds or you would receive them back," recalled Elizabeth."It looks like a great company, and then you deal with the escrow service.
NBC 5 Responds was also contacted by a Chicago man who paid $38,000 to purchase a 1956 corvette from a different vintage car website that was linked to a dealership in Arkansas. The only problem is that dealership has been closed for more than a year, and according to a warning from the BBB, “scammers are using the name and address of this closed business to scam consumers out of money for cars they do not have.
"I would have called , and they instantly would have said this is a fake site. If it sounds too good to be true, it probably is," said Elizabeth.
