Man Caught After Scamming Women Into Buying Him Corvette and Other Sports Cars

By Detroit Steel - October 24, 2016

If there’s one thing that I hate more than anything, it’s people who prey off the vulnerabilities of others.

Take, for example, Timothy Rossell of Missouri, who conned women into buying him a Corvette Z06, a Lamborghini Gallardo, and other expensive cars. According to the KMOV News report below, Rossell, who was pretending to be a U.S. Marshal and a paramedic, found the women for his scam by meeting them on the dating website Plenty of Fish.

The crux of Rossell’s car scam included getting women to buy the cars, then him selling the vehicles, but claiming that they were stolen. In addition to the Corvette and the Lamborghini, this weasel also convinced women to buy him a Cadillac Escalade, a Ford Mustang Shelby, and a Can-Am Spyder 3-wheeled motorcycle.

In fact, had it not been for his live-in girlfriend confronting Rossell about some fraudulent credit cards in his possession, there might have been a lot more victims in his scam.
