Is there any way I can get the remainder of my money back? It agreed to reimburse half the money I lost. Halifax admitted it could have done more to warn me about the scam but said I'd ignored red flags about the company. I searched for the company again and discovered that a car magazine had investigated this scam and uploaded their conversation with the company onto YouTube. I looked up the dealer’s website and it was gone. A few days later, Halifax contacted me and told me that it believed I’d been the victim of a scam. They then sent over documents which included the purchase contract and ‘verified’ the company’s identity. Someone answered the call and we spoke about the car. I looked up Miller Car Sales Limited on Companies House and phoned them up. I was unsure about the company, so I checked the car’s MOT and tax status and paid for a comprehensive vehicle history report. The ad took me to the website of ‘Miller Car Sales Limited’. I bought a Honda Insight car for £3,090 after seeing an advert on Facebook Marketplace.
