CA title fraud - this guy did everything right and still got scammed.
Just when you think you can stay ahead of the scammers...
Guy buys a car with cash at the DMV to verify clean title and the car STILL gets repossessed due to a CA lien. Consumer Alert: Title fraud scam exposed - azfamily.com 3TV

This is what comes from abolishing horse whipping.

Typical local news amateurism. They took twice as long to tell that story as they needed and included zero info on what action was taken against the seller, whether he was in on it or was also a victim. Might be a better story if they people know the guy is now in prison or facing charges and lawsuits. No word at all on that.

Happy ending, at least he gets the car back, as he should.

I'm guessing that's not typically going to be the outcome with this scam.

A lot of states are ass backwards when it comes to vehicle titles. Several states do not even require a notarized signature on the back of it.

Read the shoddy article and still was left wondering. Does this mean I would need to contact 3 News if I had a title fraud incident?
I, too, would like to know the particulars. You know, for... Science.
