Someone working for the company tried… Someone working for the company tried to trick me into buying a report using a 346 area code. Do not use them!

wheel brief scam I think sales people get a kick back as they act like there interested buying my truck but need ONLY Wheel Brief report as they don't trust any others TOTAL SCAM!

This company’s sales people act like interested buyers to trick private sellers on AutoTrader into spending $40 on scam car reports. TOTAL SCAM! I had a very similar experience to many other folks. I posted my car for sale on AutoTrader and an interested buyer with a (346) area code reached out. He wanted to buy the car but first needed me to buy a wheel brief report before meeting up for a test drive. Thankfully I found these reviews and didn’t do it. Don’t fall for it, it’s a total scam!!

Unethical Business Practice. Scamming people to buy reports. Shady company. The only reason I bought a report is because someone was saying he would buy my car on autotrader if I ran a wheelbrief report. They kept calling it "WB report" as if this was a known name (I have been buying and selling cars for many years). The reports are inferior to Carfax and Autocheck and after I ran the report (which was clean) the "buyer" went missing. I then realized the person was not interested in buying my car, but was just pushing people to run reports and spend money on wheel brief.com. This is very dishonest way to do business!

Seems like 100% scam Seems like 100% scam. Listed my car on AutoTrader and got a “buyer” insisting that I buy this report before they would come see the car. I asked what was in it and they were very vague about how it would be different than the information I was already providing. I Googled the company because the whole thing sounded fishy, and got zero hits except for this TrustPilot page saying that it was a scam. Glad I did not fall for it (my husband would have!)
