I’m new to referral cars and seeking guidance. How do these programs typically operate? Are rewards based on sales or test drives? Which car brands have notable programs, especially for electric vehicles? What pitfalls should I watch out for? Any advice or experiences would be appreciated.
You earn points or cash when someone you refer buys a car (usually a sale, not a test drive). Look for programs by Hyundai, Kia, Chevrolet, or Toyota – some even have specific EV incentives.
The corporation sends you a $5,000 check, instructing you to use it to pay the automobile wrapping company $4,000 and pocket the remaining amount.
You deposit the check.
You have $5,000 in your account after one to two days.
The remaining funds are transferred using an irreversible method, such wire transfer.
A few weeks later, it is discovered that the original check was fraudulent, and the $5,000 is taken out of your account. You are out the $4,000 that you sent by wire transfer because it cannot be retrieved.
