Man Hoping to Get Scammed Gets Car Warranty Instead

“It was humiliating,” states Henry Hartfield of Cranberry Township. “I genuinely wanted to be scammed.”

Hartfield’s goal was to have his bank account cleared so that he wouldn’t have to pay child support. Unfortunately, Hartfield was scammed in a good way when the car extended warranty wound up being a genuine offer. Now, the biggest struggle for Hartfield is figuring out how to cancel his warranty.

Countless calls to customer service result in endless menus that refuse to put him through to a representative. When he asks to cancel his service, the machine can’t understand him and automatically hangs up. When he asks to speak to a real person, the machine doesn’t understand him and automatically hangs up. Hartfield is stuck with a warranty he never wanted.

“This was a tragic mistake that has ruined my life forever,” states Hartfield. “I was hoping to have all my money taken away, and now I will have all my money taken away.”

With no resolution in sight, Hartfield is forced to continue spending his millions on financial commitments he wants no part in. Meanwhile, others in his neighborhood are wondering whether or not they should try to do the car warranty scam.

“I genuinely need an extended car warranty,” states Gerald Ford. “My Model T is about to break down, and the warranty expired more than a hundred years ago.”

The authorities caution people against trying what Mr. Hartfield did. Several believe that it is worth the risk if it worked out for Hartfield. With innumerable scams that will clearly result in dozens of victims having their accounts cleared, one thing is for sure: that one-in-a-million jackpot will motivate people to try something that they absolutely should not do.
