These clowns are part of what some car dealers do. They promise you financing and you the customer act in good faith. You give them a deposit when asked.

After they lie to you and don't produce, they keep your deposit. This happened to me at Kings Auto Plaza Brooklyn NY. I reported them to the Brooklyn DA, that's when I got my deposit back.

I am reporting these jokers to the Westchester County NY DA's office for the same type of offense.
Do a handshake with any car dealer. Only transfer money when the deal is done.
