Texas Auto Value legit?

Anyone dealt with them? This is the company that’s supposed to come up here to BFE next week and buy my car. Meeting at bank. Etc etc..

Anyone dealt with them? They beat Car Max and Give Me The Vins offer. Plus I don’t have to drive anywhere.

Legitimate? BBB says they are. Reddit posts seem ok too. Hoping one of y’all have dealt with them.

You need to have your bank call their bank and make sure funds are in your account before he gets the vehicle.
There are some really legit looking checks or other things that can even fool the banks for a few days.
Then they find out it is not real and you are screwed.

That is about all I can tell you.
Daughter sold something and deposited the money and used the money a few days later and after a week the bank contacted her and said the deposit thing was not real.

That seems like a dicey business model at scale.

If it's over 10,000 the bank fill out IRS form for Money Laundry

It’s a $30,000 car. Pay off is low 20’s. Would just be around $6,000 they would owe us. They would owe the lender the rest.

I’ve looked at a lot. Seems legitimate… heck I’ve heard of them going to Georgia to get cars. They’re a wholesale company out of Dallas.
I can’t imagine a company surviving this long if it was a scam.

Read the fine print!! The scammers put in clauses that if not as perfect as you say, they can come back and sue you for misrepresentin'
