Has anyone received any scam emails or snail mail similar to the attached picture? It seems like these scams are intentionally targeting new owners.

It’s nothing new, that’s been going on for decades. I just rip it up and throw it out. They aren’t targeting it’s just what happens when you buy a car cause your information was sold wherever you bought it from.

When I’m able to deduce which asshole sold my info I make their life hell with bad reviews. You’d be surprised how many people avoid a business when the reviews say they shamelessly sell your information to predators.

That would be wherever you bought your car from and probably the financial institution your loan came from. If you read a lot of the financial print when signing documents you’ll see clauses they can sell your information to third parties.

That's just what happens when you buy a vehicle. I've experienced it multiple times after purchasing a vehicle.

Thanks all, I didn't get anything like this when I bought the 2015 Chrysler and haven't had a car payment in years.
20 years of driving a Dodge Neon ...
I earned this car and going to drive it like I stole it everyday!
