Who Wants To Make $1000.00 !?

That's right ...I went to the dealership to pick up a used RX8GT in TS , but I was denied a loan by the bank since my credit is a bit too new . I've only had my credit card for 1 1/2 yrs with great payments , however it's not good enough for the banks . To say the least I was devastated to hear I wasn't approved since I've been dreaming of this car for a few yrs now .


I need a co-signer and I'm willing to pay anyone who steps up $1000.00 cash and a friend for life

I'm not out to screw anyone , the car WILL be paid . If I'm throwing a grand out to get someone to co-sign ...obviously I intend to and can afford this car . Banks are the only thing in my way .

I'm in Canada , so I'm assuming you must be a Canadian residing .

drop me a line

No offense, but be prepared to be flamed to death!

While I applaud your willingness to ask other for help, surely there has to be someone in your life to do this for you; friends, family, etc.

No one in their RIGHT MIND would EVER co-sign for someone they've never met. For what?? for a measly $1,000?! The effects of you missing a few payments could be FAR MORE damaging then $1,000 could ever fix.

I don't see anyone taking you up on this...and this is your first post???!!!

Good luck man!

Don't you think it would be better if you asked a friend that you know in real life though? Seeing how you only have 2 posts on this forums that is a HUGE leap of faith for someone to do when they have never talked to you before.

I hope you get the car and I am not trying to put you down, but I think you would have better luck with a long time friend or even a parent.

Have you tried to pay more in cash? Sometimes they will be more accepting if you drop down a lot more for the down payment.

Again, Good Luck and I hope you get it!

I'll cosign for 30k (USD). Then if you default I can pay off the car and take ownership :D

Two 8s are better than one!

Sorry, my money's tied up helping this Nigerian widow get her dead husband's money out of Lagos. Otherwise I'd love to help a complete stranger with new credit buy a car the bank has determined he can't afford.

Yeah, but you might end up taking ownership of an 8 with half its parts missing.

I like how all scams come from Nigeria. What a terrible reputation to have: Nigeria - Home of Internet Scams.

If you have a high income level to list they are also more willing to loan you money. You probably fall into the "high-risk" category so you need to put more money down, have a higher income, a higher credit score.

Don't understand why people reply just to let everyone know how uninterested they are .

Everything has to turn info a flame war , if you're not interested don't reply ...not a big deal .

You're a brand new member who is offering something ridiculous!

Nothing wrong with some of us calling this what it truly is: a potential scam!
Oh, and posting it in 3 different places just means you get three times the:

Thanks for all the great replys guys !!! you're really giving this place a good name !


Don't you think if I had someone to co-sign I would have already asked ? and yes this is a Nigerian scam ...based out of Ottawa Canada .

If you're not interested than it goes without saying .

Thanks

I think someone put it best in your other thread:

If your friends/family don't trust you enough to co-sign, why should we?

Do you understand what a co-signer is liable for?

Basically, if you dissapear and flake out, your co-signer is liable for all the payments.

If you can't get your family or friends to trust you why would some stranger?

$1000 is hardly worth the risk of you defaulting on a $40,000 car.

He admitted it! Those crafty Nigerians almost had us fooled. No one ever suspects Canada.

I was in the same position you were in when I was trying to get my car. I got it all on my own eventually with a higher down payment and a promotion at my job. You just have to strap down and determine how much you really want the car. You will get it, you just have to focus on the means of showing the bank you can afford it. If you have credit card debt, pay it off, if you have next to no credit, show them the cash, and don't be affraid of trying different banks, even different dealers that are Mazda/ whatever other car company. They might be able to get you a loan through the other car companies bank instead of Mazda. You just have to explore your options. But save your $1,000 and build your credit instead of paying a cosigner, because what happens if they want your car? They are part owner.
