WI DMV Warns of Online Vehicle Fraud

The Wisconsin Department of Motor Vehicles is warning consumers about increasing online car sale fraud.

The Dealer and Agent department says fraudsters use stock images of cars to make fake social media pages for Wisconsin dealerships. The DMV says red flags include cars listed for less than their market value, and sales without in-person contact with the seller. Last year, almost 13-hundred people report being scammed through fraudulent online car sales. Anyone who thinks they may have been scammed can contact the DMV Dealer and Agent.
