Cops get involved in a New Jersey car deal gone wrong, and now the seller’s nowhere to be found as the buyer wants his money back

A New Jersey car dealer says he was blindsided after police confiscated a BMW he had just purchased from another Virginia car dealership, but the comments aren’t exactly sympathetic.

“Imagine that, an auto dealer ripped you off. Welcome to everyone else’s world,” one person wrote under a viral TikTok post from New Jersey dealer George Saliba (@Georgejsaliba). Another added, “When dealers get scammed it gives me a warm fuzzy feeling inside ,” while a third questioned, “How did YOU buy a stolen car without running the VIN?!?”
