Amid criminal probes, state suspends Hollywood auto dealer's license

A South Florida car dealership is no longer allowed to operate in the state of Florida following a Local 10 News investigation.

[@rawwwwable]

Damn American justice system sucks. All they did was suspend their license. What about the customers who lost their money ??

[@bajbah242]

They can no longer operate in the state.

[@RosieRose-p6u]

Florida systems never consider the customers for damages. It's so crooked they probably used customers complaints as their own and took whatever due to customers...Floridians are on their own u gotta take everything to small claims...going through their chain of commands are dead ends. Take your complaints to court and win.

Wiring that amount of money for a vehicle online is CRAZY!

[@WhiskeyTango68]

Is showing up with that much cash less crazy?

[@BigKing17]

I mean isn’t that how most large transactions are completed. If he flew with that type of money Police at the airport would confiscate it under civil forfeiture.

[@LaLiLuLeLoX]

​@BigKing17 whaaaaaaaa are you guys talking about? Go actually see the car first, buy the car, move the car? Wtf actually sends money online like that? This guy looks like he has the money to make that happen. Fly to Florida, see the car, work out some deal of transfer, etc

[@BigKing17]

@@LaLiLuLeLoX Maybe you should write better sentences. You said “Wiring that amount of money for a vehicle online is crazy”. All I said was that’s how large transactions work. Maybe you should have said Wiring that amount without viewing the vehicle is crazy.

[@sbs-0055]

@@BigKing17you probably have some brain cells missing. Even if I’m buying a brand new Camry, I’ll go to the dealership to see the car and complete the transaction in person let alone wiring 275k for something that I have never seen.

[@CarStory]

He had $275,000 to buy the car sight unseen but didn’t have a couple hundred to hire someone local to go and inspect what he was buying. Would have prevented the whole situation.

[@Bill-im6nt]

It was probably worth much more, and he knew it, so he thought he was getting "a steal".

[@LADETROIT]

At that price, buy a first class ticket or charter a jet to go check it out personally

[@empressklosets8575]

I was scammed earlier this year by this same company. I received my refund from them once Mr. Su started his suit and investigation. I actually testified because they were advertising vehicles that was no where on there lot. And wouldn't let me test drive the vehicle and later found out the vehicle they tried to sell me didn't even have a title in there possession and they signed me up for car insurance that didn't cover anything at all. The worst feeling in the world

A fool and his money will soon part. Dude wired $275K without physically seeing the car. Surely he had the $1000 to hop on a flight or hire someone to verify. Never mind he was willing to pay that kind of money for a name. How did he get to his big age still being so naive?

Lesson learned do not wire money and do the deal in person after verifying the vehicle is legit

[@ptuzdi]

And you can meet all these scammers at local fancy restaurants or golf courses! Florida pattern!

[@terrybaptist795]

The way I see it they don't get a red cent until I receive the vehicle

[@sleezye100]

Some lessons learned cost you a lot of money, heartache, anguish, and stress. Maybe next time you won’t send money for a vehicle unless you see it first.

[@CoolHand273]

even if you see it first it can still disappear. or it could have been sold to multiple people already. or it may not even be theirs to sell. when there are large amounts of money involved and male ego a lot of bad stuff goes on. you would also be amazed at how undercapitalized these businesses are. They could buy a few cars wrong and be behind the eight ball having to rob peter to pay paul until it all comes crashing down. People end up with cars without titles and titles without cars or in this case no money no car no title.

I've looked at several cars offered for sale by this auto dealer. Something was remiss, I couldn't put my finger on it but I knew something wasn't quite right. The answers I got from the salesmen gave me a creepy feeling. I refused to do business with them. Now I am extra glad I did! They only got their license suspended after this kind of fraud?
