Beware of scammers when buying a second-hand vehicle! Expert warned…
Due to the revival experienced before the holiday in second-hand vehicle sales, which have been stagnant for a while, Motor Vehicle Dealers Federation Chairman Aydın Erkoç warned that people should be careful against people who enter the market for fraudulent purposes.

Erkoç said, “Every year, vehicle buying and selling transactions accelerate before the holiday and as the summer months approach. During this period, we see an increase in people who do ‘deposit scams’ and ‘on the run’ over the internet. We recommend that both our citizens and motor vehicle sellers be careful here.”

“Prefer authorized sellers!”

Stating that those who sell without an authorization certificate cause consumers to suffer, Erkoç said, “It is important for our citizens to shop from automotive trade centers or motor vehicle dealers with an authorization certificate. In these periods, deposit fraud is especially common. If consumers choose addresses where they can find interlocutors when buying a car, they will not experience any problems.”

Pay attention to TSE in the appraisal process!
Erkoç drew attention to the fact that caution should also be exercised in the vehicle appraisal process, and noted the following: “It is important for appraisal centers to provide services at TSE standards and to provide a guarantee for the vehicle in question. In this way, the grievances experienced in this regard will also be prevented. When having an appraisal, reliable, institutional centers that meet the necessary standards should definitely be preferred.”
