Car fax really saved me from buying a Salvage history vehicle.
I was looking to buy a used car. The seller said the car has clean title and no accidents at all. I looked at the title. It was clean no Rebuilt title or Salvage title. I almost decided to buy the car and promised him that I will take the car. Then I ran the CARFAX and then found that the car was Salvaged earlier and was bought from Salvage auction and was fixed and sold to this seller. Interestingly the car title does not show any of that. I was under impression that if a car was rebuilt or salvaged, its title should say as REBUILT or SALVAGE. But in this case it was not. I had to take my promise back. This time I was careful and bought another car with clean title from a military person.
Watch out for all these scams. Even DOL is scammed these days.
