If you’ve been contemplating having your car scrapped, it’s vital you do so through a reputable car removal service. Recently, there has been a spate of car scams, which has seen unwanted vehicles being illegally dealt with by the disreputable scrapyards to which they’re sold.
What do car scrapping scams typically involve?
Instead of disposing with end-of-life vehicles responsibly, as a reputable car removal service like Galaxy Cars Removal would, scammers are in fact retaining the vehicles to be used illegally. This means End of Life Vehicles may end up back on the road after being precariously repaired, sold on, and even used by other criminals.
Why are car scrapping scams so dangerous?
In many cases, consumers do not receive the money they’ve been promised for their “scrapped” vehicle. But even more worrying, the original owner continues to be legally responsible for the vehicle, despite believing that it’s been professionally scrapped, and therefore expecting to be no longer accountable for it. This means that victims of the scam can be liable for a long list of expensive or lifestyle-disrupting penalties.
How can consumers prevent falling prey to a car scrapping scam?
Do your homework, and ensure that the scrapyard to which you plan to sell your vehicle is a reputable service provider in the area. There will be a number of procedures a reputable car removal services will carry out as standard protocol that guarantees that you’re no longer responsible for your scrapped vehicle.
