🚫 Don’t Be a Victim
Avoid the Two Biggest Risks in the Online Used Car Market
⚠ 1. Scammers (Two Types)
• Fake Exporters:
They pose as Japanese used car sellers and offer unbelievably low prices. Using Japan’s reputation for trust, they trick you into sending money—then disappear.
• Money Scammers:
Some contact you through social media, offering to exchange your money or help you send funds to Japan. They may ask to trade currencies or use Bitcoin (BTC) or similar methods. Whether their service is fake or even real, you carry all the risk—including the risk of:
- Getting scammed
- Money being held or blocked
- No proof of payment or legal recourse
Never send your money through unverified people or social media offers. Always use official, traceable methods.
⚠ 2. Dishonest Real Dealers
Some are real companies—but after you send your deposit, they start making up extra charges. They might blame things like:
- “Auction price changes”
- “Unexpected shipping fees”
- “Storage or documentation issues”
Their goal is to pressure you into topping up more money just to avoid losing your first deposit.
✅ How to Stay Safe
- Deal with a reputable, well-established company.
- Ask for a referral from someone who has already imported a car.
- Avoid anything that feels too good to be true—it usually is.
- Never trust social media for financial transactions related to your car purchase.
