Victim report:

My parents almost got ripped off by these people and the bank stopped the payment. (thank goodness) When the VIN number was checked out by the police it was non existent. This is a big scam and the website should be removed.

From the fake website:

Crown Auto sets out to provide top quality used cars at the best possible prices. We have been selling used repossessed vehicles and we are familiar with the popular growing car market. Growth and expansion are key goals for most businesses. We try to expand our company and now we provide our customers with a diversified range of vehicles.


Contact details:

5 Roberts Drive
Little Rapids, NL A2H 2N2
Contact@crown-auto.ca


How it works:

The sale procedure was established in contractual terms with our partners and is presented in the following way: The potential customer will choose a vehicle listed on our website as available for sale. The customer can initiate the purchase by using the “Buy it Now” feature. If the customer has any other questions regarding the vehicle or the transaction he shall use the “Request More Information” feature.

When the customer decides to make the purchase by clicking BUY IT NOW he has to complete all the contractual steps of the “Buy it Now” process. Our sales procedure is in line with Canadian standards for online vehicle sales.
After the customer completes all the steps of the “Buy it Now” process he will receive by e-mail the Invoice for the vehicle, signed and stamped by our company. The Invoice will contain a clear identification of the vehicle, the customer’s data,delivery address, bank details of our company and the total price to be paid. After receiving the WAP form, the customer must sign it and send payment to the company bank account indicated in the Invoice. Payment must be completed and confirmed within 48 hours from the time he received the Invoice

*** To confirm payment, the customer must send back a copy of the ID/Passport and the copy of the bank receipt with transfer information clearly visible***

The delivery procedure and the documents required for the transfer of ownership are prepared only after the customer’s payment is confirmed by our bank. Document preparation will take between 1-3 working days and the delivery procedure will take between 5-7 days, depending on the location of delivery. In addition to the purchase price, the customer must pay a fixed fee for the release of documents, worth $250, and a shipping fee that depends on the distance of transport from our office to the location of delivery.


The victim will be asked to download a form, with the mention:

After you have completed and signed the “Written Authorization for Purchase” send it by e-mail to: contact@crown-auto.ca
Please attach to this e-mail the completed and signed “Written Authorization for Purchase” and also please include in your e-mail a copy of your ID/Passport (required for preparation of the sale and export documents.


After receiving the “Written Authorization for Purchase Form” completed and signed by the customer, our company will prepare a standard Invoice and send it to the customer. The Invoice will contain a clear identification of the vehicle, the customer’s data, delivery address, bank details of our company and the total price to be paid.
Payment must be made and confirmed in a maximum of 48 hours (two working days) from the receipt of the standard contract of sale. To confirm the payment, the customer must send back the signed contract of sale and the copy of the bank receipt with the transfer details clearly visible.

After finishing the “Buy it Now” process and receiving the Invoice, the customer has the legal obligation to confirm payment for the total amount in the contract within 48 hours (two working days). By failing to comply, our company reserves the right to sue the customer at the Canadian Court of Commercial Arbitration for breach of the Canadian regulations regarding online purchases and claim for damages up to 50% of the vehicle list price. At the same time, the customer shall be placed on the blacklist of debtors and will no longer have the right to buy other vehicles from us.

Same story, another fake company: Crown AutoDealers.

From the fake website:

Daily, many people fail to pay their loans or leases and, as a result, their items become repossessed. Since financial institutions want to recoup their money and avoid storage fees for their repossessed products, they sell these at online auctions. While many auctions are available to the open public, the best deals offered by banks, credit unions and lease companies happen behind closed doors where only a few dealers are allowed to be. We’re proud to be one of these licensed dealers allowed in such auctions. You now have a chance to purchase one of these items for sale. When it comes to our Buy it Now option, it has made purchasing that used item you have dreamed of a lot easier and without all of the hassle seen in the past. It means that you will be able to buy used items at a fixed price. Canada Inc has one click to buy the items, so you won’t have to worry about having to beat someone else for the same item. Just select – Buy it Now – Take it home. All the items offered for sale by our company are in perfect working condition and are accompanied by a certificate of inspection. This certificate is issued after an inspection made by our service experts. Thus, we ensure that the description from our website is as accurate as possible. The items offered for sale on our website are registered in Canada. These items are recovered by banks or lease companies from debtors (bad payers). Our motto is “Quality beats the price!”. For this reason, the most important thing for everyone in the company is to offer to the buyer a high-quality product. Our motto is “Quality beats the price!”. For this reason, the most important thing for everyone in the company is to offer the end customer a high-quality product. This way, we make sure that our clients will return to us for a future purchase. Moreover, a high-quality product will ensure our company of good feedback from our client and the possibility that they recommend us to his friends and his partners.
To be closer to our customers and show our gratitude our company offers at the end of each transaction a voucher worth $750. This voucher can be used for a future purchase and is valid for two years from the issuance date. The voucher can be used by its rightful owner or can be transferred to any other person. If the voucher is transferred to another person, the beneficiary of the voucher must provide us by e-mail the unique voucher code released to the rightful holder.
