The company was shut down following reports of fraudulent sales, and its vehicle listing system reinforces suspicions
Compartir:
The provincial government has preventively closed the Go Max dealership, located at Octavio Pinto 2882, after receiving multiple reports of fraud. Authorities seized documentation and electronic equipment that are key to judicial investigations. The procedure was carried out simultaneously with the preventive closure of another local company, also under suspicion of similar schemes.
The Consumer Protection Directorate explained that the measure responds to "multiple reports of fraud in vehicle sales". The agency emphasized the need for buyers to verify the background of each company before signing contracts. They also stressed that these types of interventions aim to protect users from unscrupulous dealership practices.
Go Max's fraudulent actions are not limited only to the failure to deliver sold units, but also include a deceptive client acquisition mechanism. Sellers posted cars and motorcycles on networks such as Marketplace, but many of those ads were made with photos stolen from other sites. This way, they offered vehicles that in reality were never part of the real catalog of the dealership.

A system designed to deceive the public with false offers
The scheme included the express order to post vehicles in provinces other than Córdoba, hiding the company's real location. Anyone who disobeyed and advertised in Córdoba was sanctioned internally, which demonstrates the deliberate intention to conceal the operation. That practice made it difficult for buyers to verify vehicles in person before making a purchase.
Coordinators pressured sellers to follow these rules and prohibited clients from seeing the units before paying. That level of secrecy was an unequivocal sign that the company did not have the vehicles it offered in the ads. In practice, buyers often ended up depositing money for units they would never receive.
Thus, Go Max offered vehicles they never had available, with the excuse that they would later deliver a similar one or obtain it later. Coordinators went so far as to sell the same vehicle multiple times, showing total disregard for clients' rights and trust. In addition, sellers did not receive a fixed salary, since they worked solely on commission, which further precarized the entire operation.
Knowledge about Go Max's operations reflects a systematic pattern of deception toward consumers. These were not isolated errors, but rather a business model designed to defraud deliberately and continuously. The confirmed reports and the current closure only serve to corroborate what was already evident in the experience of many victims.
