Celebrity cheated in trade with old Volkswagen Golf

Mike Brewer, who is known as the host of the TV show Wheeler Dealers, has been cheated out of the money in a trade for an older Volkswagen Golf.

Mike Brewer has actually made a name for himself by trading cars in the British car program Wheeler Dealers. But even a professional can be cheated.

And that is precisely what has happened. Brewer admits this in a video he posted on his YouTube channel.

In the YouTube video, Mike Brewer says that at first everything looked perfectly normal. A customer wanted to buy a car like so many for. In this case, a Volkswagen Golf GTD with a few years under its belt. Nothing alarming under the sun there.

The man even showed a choir card, as well as being able to pay for the car, because he drove away with it. However, no more than a few days passed before problems began to appear.

The bank withdrew the money used to buy the car. Turns out the man Mike Brewer thought he was dealing with is a con man.

A swindler who, with another man's choir card and bank details, cheated his way to the Gulf. In another video , the Wheeler Dealers star makes it clear that the police are being contacted. Maybe law enforcement can find out who Mike Brewer was actually 'dealing' with.

– Now it is up to the police to do their job, let's hope they do it and that they can get the car back.

– The bank withdrew the money and we have no car, says Mike Brewer.

He also says that neither he nor any of his employees will ever again sell a car to a customer who is 'just' satisfied with calling, because that person shows up with the money for a car.
