woman allegedly pretends she owns a rental car and tries to sell it for thousands of dollars online. The man who nearly bought it is stunned that the woman, who was already out on bond for a different crime, has now been released from jail.
"It just did not feel right," Korra explains. He nearly forked over $16,000 to buy a 2022 white Toyota Camry.When Mr. Mohamed saw the Camry on Craigslist for about $6,000 less than market price, he immediately contacted the seller who provided him with what turned out to be a fake title, and she without negotiation, dropped the price by another $2,000 to $14,000. Ultimately, she ended up dropping the price to just $10,000, but she insisted on cash.
He pumped the brakes on the sale, but ultimately met back up with the woman, recording everything while police watched.

Through the Vehicle Identification Number, Humble police found the real owner of the Toyota. Turns out, she rented her car out to a customer on "We ran that guest through all of our verification steps, our fraud assessment steps, and there were no flags raised. It was a legitimate guest from our perspective, and then the bad guy who recruited the guest to book the trip, took the car, and attempted to sell it," explains Getaround Vice President of Customer Experience Ruth Yankoupe.
