Man Regrets Buying Maserati Lookalike for $2,700; Agency Agrees to Refund
Mr. Feng from Guangdong mistakenly purchased a low-speed electric vehicle resembling a Maserati in an online auction for ¥19,966, believing it was a genuine new energy vehicle. He only realized his mistake after winning the auction and discovering it was a “lao tou le.” Initially facing a penalty for cancellation, he successfully contested the charges after media attention, receiving a full refund. The incident highlights deceptive marketing tactics and the need for vigilance in online auctions, urging stricter platform verification and clearer regulations for low-speed electric vehicles.
