Alert

In August 2023, BBB received a sudden influx of customer inquiries and BBB Scam Tracker Reports regarding Amherst Classic Cars. This prompted BBB to initiate an investigation. In these Scam Tracker reports and inquiries, consumers allege that they attempted to purchase classic cars from online and Facebook listings run by the company. Consumers report that they were asked to wire money for vehicles, but became suspicious after the seller could not provide details or schedule timely appointments to see vehicles for sale. Some consumers have visited Amherst Classic Cars' reported physical location to inspect vehicles without success. A WHOIS check of the company's website domain reveals it was created on July 8th 2023 and ownership of the website is concealed by a third-party privacy service. BBB records show that the 7455 South Dewey Rd, Amherst, OH 44001 address used by Amherst Classic Cars belongs to another industrial company whose principal confirmed that Amherst Classic Cars has been out of business "for years." The business also reported that they have had received many calls and visitors looking for Amherst Classic Cars. Additionally, letters and emails sent from BBB on August 17th, 2023 have gone unanswered. Based on the information detailed above, BBB cannot verify the physical location of the company. BBB advises using caution when wiring money to any unknown third party. Consumers with outstanding concerns are encouraged to file a complaint with BBB and may also wish to contact legal counsel and the Ohio Attorney General.
