“On or about 10-6-10 I assisted my grandson in purchasing a vehicle from a car lot in cleveland ohio. The car was a 1995 chevy Lumina. We were told the car had been purchased at an auction in pa. And driven to cleveland without a problem. I paid $635 for the downpayment with additional $300 to be paid by 11-5-10 for a title transfer. Then $200 a month thereafter for 12 months.
