Description

As automobiles play a major part in our daily lives, many of us have learned to put our trust both in secondhand car dealers and maintenance experts. In this episode of Scammed, we see how criminals involved in either practice can find a range of opportunities to defraud both vehicle owners and their insurance companies. The first segment follows one man's encounters with unscrupulous car salesmen. The second segment examines the tampering of air bags - a criminal act that has resulted in the loss of human life - as we meet a mother whose son became a victim of air bag fraud. This type of devastating experience has left many families bereft, simply because they trusted criminals successfully posing as auto experts.
