How can this be???

What does your state say? I just don't how the title could be transferred without the legal owner allowing it. The legal is the bank. At least this is how it works in the state of WA.

I think I should never type without my glasses....apparently I can't see where my fingers end up.

So your state allows co-owners? Hmm.....I could see how this is a frequent thing. Contact your local congress person as well.

The scary thing is that I thought I saw those words when I read you text the first time. Guess I should not read without my glasses. Well, upon further research, turns out the dealer never put State Farm Bank on the title as lein holder as he should have. The bank says this is the reason they cannot take it from the current owner. You guys have lit a fire under my butt, I am going higher up in the food chain and rattle some cages!

I can't believe that the police will not pursue a case of fraud, that was done by US MAIL.
This is more than a civil case.
I am not a lawyer, nor do I play one on TV.

Exactly. Fraud, swindle, etc. No matter how you look at it a criminal act was performed. If the local cops will not help I would go directly to the local police station and talk to a 'higher-up'. Depending on where you live the police may have a fraud department set up.

I will most likely file bankruptcy on this and hopefully can convince the judge to do something on my behalf for the credit report. Please tell everyone you all know to be aware of this when trading in a vehicle with a balance owed, I do not wish for this to happen to anyone else.

You would be better off to default on the car load than to declare bankruptcy. You really need to get your attorney general's office involved as well as the postal inspector for a possible case of mail fraud.

rascal-I have been assigned a case number by the state police and they are doing an investigation with the secretary of state about all the fraud he has done. There is no doubt he will be prosecuted and likely see jail time as the number of people coming forward on this keeps growing.
G-MAN, I wanted to default, but I have already had to make the first payment as the bank was going to seek legal action against me. If I don't pay, they will get a judgement against me and garnish my accounts or take my taxes, I can't have that. I am going to make more calls tomorrow and also call the bank to speak to the highest in command. Maybe I will ask him what would be cheaper, writing off this $$, or all the negative publicity I will create for them.
