You forgot the biggest scam: 40 YEARS of rolling back odometers on used cars, and selling them as new (or substantially less used) http://articles.latimes.com/1987-06-25/news/mn-10607_1_odometer-fraud http://articles.latimes.com/1987-06-25/news/mn-10607_1_odome... My mom bought a Chrysler LeBaron that, in one year of ownership, the brakes, exhaust, cylinder head, a/c and shock absorbers required service. We were later informed by a federal court that her car was one of the "rollback" vehicles. Chrysler denied it and basically told us "see you in court."
