NC - SC
I replied to an internet ad for a vehicle. I drove from NC to SC and paid for the vehicle with cash, the buyer filled out a Bill of Sale and we had it notarized it at a bank. I left without the title because of time constraints and the seller assured me that he would forward the title to me. I have since found out that the title is being held by a finance company in SC and he has not paid them the money for them to release the title. After many unanswered phone messages inquiring about the status and trying to get resolution, the seller finally answered the phone and told me to return the vehicle to him for a refund. The seller is not being reasonable in that he refuses and I have reason to be afraid of him. What should I do? Should I take the time to go down to SC and file a complaint with the authorities?
