DMV News Release - August 2021

DMV Consumer Warning:
Stolen Vehicles Being Fraudulently Sold Online as Used Car

California Department of Motor Vehicles is alerting Californians to be on the lookout for unscrupulous used car sellers who are luring unsuspecting consumers into buying stolen vehicles online. This warning comes after DMV investigators report an increase in this type of illegal activity, which is fueled by a shortage of new vehicles for sale, and consumers willing to pay more for used ones.

Criminals exploiting the vehicle shortage steal a vehicle, alter the Vehicle Identification Number (VIN), create a fraudulent certificate of title (commonly known as a pink slip), and advertise the car for sale online through sites such as Facebook Marketplace or Offer Up. The car thieves use several tactics to encourage the buyer to take quick action, including listing the stolen vehicles well below market value, discounting the sale by thousands of dollars without negotiation, and telling potential buyers they have received several offers.
“With an increase in stolen vehicles being sold online, we are reminding consumers that if something seems too good to be true, it probably is,” said DMV Director Steve Gordon. “Californians planning to make a large cash purchase of a vehicle from someone they do not know should proceed with caution.”

Consumers can take several steps to avoid inadvertently purchasing a stolen vehicle:

Obtain an online VIN history report or ask the seller to provide you with a report and compare the information to the vehicle being offered for sale.
Compare the name of the owner on the title (pink slip) to the name of the seller.
Insist on meeting the seller at a local DMV field office to complete the sale and vehicle transfer.
Meet at a local law enforcement location to verify the vehicle before the transaction.
As with all sales, buyers should take note of the seller’s car and attempt to confirm their identity.

DMV investigators protect consumers and improve public safety through investigation of complaints that often result in criminal or administrative actions. Consumers who believe they may have purchased a stolen vehicle with a fraudulent certificate of title are urged to contact DMV Investigations at (661) 836-2291.

The DMV reminds customers that legitimate title transfers and many other DMV activities can be accomplished online at dmv.ca.gov/portal/dmv-online/.

Happy 4th of July Flag Factoids!

The star-spangled American flag is most commonly flown on holidays such as Flag Day, Independence Day, and Veteran's Day, but it can be flown from sunrise to sunset on any day of the year. When not on display, it should be respectfully folded into a triangular shape. This triangle is emblematic of the three-cornered hats worn by Colonial soldiers in the Revolutionary War.

The colors on the flag represent:
Red: valor and bravery
White: purity and innocence
Blue: vigilance, perseverance, and justice

Webster Insurance is proud to help sponsor the La Mesa Classic Car Show. Come on out this Thursday!
