Într-o perioadă de doar opt zile, Dunia Sierra, din Florida, a condus acasă 10 dintre cele mai neașteptate mașini recent achiziționate și finanțate. Conform jalopnik.com, Sierra a fost arestată pe 9 aprilie și acum se confruntă cu mai multe acuzații grave, inclusiv fraudă organizată și furt de vehicule.

👉 Modul în care Dunia Sierra a folosit informații false pentru a obține finanțare

Dunia Sierra nu a acționat singură, ci a colaborat cu manageri financiari ai dealerilor, intermediari de vehicule și alți „cumpărători fasciși”, așa cum era și ea. Planul era să cumpere rapid mai multe mașini folosind informații false, înainte ca achizițiile să apară pe scorul de credit. Sierra a mințit pe formularele de împrumut, afirmând că deține restaurantul la care lucra ca chelneriță și că câștigă 180.000 de dolari pe lună.

👉 Creșterea fraudelor cu credite auto în Florida și detalii despre arestarea ei

Asemenea scheme de tip "credit bust-out" devin din ce în ce mai populare în Florida. În acest caz, cumpărătoarea, Sierra, folosește creditul propriu pentru a finanța vehiculele, în colaborare cu manageri financiari dubioși care aprobă informațiile false. De obicei, mașinile au multe opțiuni adăugate, ceea ce permite managerilor financiari să obțină câștiguri din fiecare achiziție. După ce cumpără mașinile, aceștia le vând, de obicei, pe piața neagră, adesea expediindu-le în străinătate.

Un raport NBC Miami din anul trecut arăta că Florida devenea epicentrul pentru astfel de crime. De obicei, cumpărătorii fug din țară după achiziții, dar Sierra nu a reușit să scape suficient de repede, fiind arestată și având o cauțiune de 26.000 de dolari. Mașinile pe care le-ar fi achiziționat sau furat includ Corvette, Toyota, dar și un BMW i8 din 2019, un Hyundai Palisade Calligraphy din 2024, un Kia Telluride din 2024, un Mazda CX-9 din 2022 și trei motociclete Harley.

'Big Short' investor Michael Burry sells GameStop stake, shorts Palantir stock - Business Insider

Michael Burry says he's given up on GameStop — and ramped up his bet against Palantir."I sold my entire GME position," the investor of "The Big Short" fame wrote in a Monday post on his Substack, adding that it was the first full position he's exited since he pivoted from running a hedge fund to writing online late last year."Any which way I sliced it, the Instant Berkshire thesis was never compatible with >5x Debt/EBITDA, never ok with interest coverage under 4.0x," he wrote."Instant Berkshire" is Burry's idea for GameStop CEO Ryan Cohen to emulate Warren Buffett's Berkshire Hathaway by "creating a portfolio of great companies that generate excess capital or float for additional investment beyond what is required for their growth."Burry wrote in a late April post that GameStop, JD.com, and Molina Healthcare were his three largest positions, and together made up well over a third of his personal stock portfolio.In his late-Monday post, Burry laid out in a graphic why Cohen's $56 billion cash-and-stock offer for eBay is a far cry from the deal he envisioned for GameStop.He estimated the proposed acquisition would burden the combined business with a net-debt-to-profit ratio of 5.2 times, and its yearly profits would only be 2.5 times its annual interest expense.Moreover, he projected that if eBay pushes back and demands $65 billion, then the business could wind up with 7.7 times leverage and a profit-to-interest ratio of 1.2 to 1.5 times.Burry said in an earlier post on Monday that leverage above 5 times was a "knife edge," and 7.7 times was "a level of debt that borders on distressed."In his late-Monday post, Burry said that he "opened an outright short" on Palantir ahead of its Monday earnings, adding that he's "shorting the company because it is worth low double digits at best."Burry said he's not only betting against Palantir because he believes it's overvalued: "I am shorting the business model. I am shorting the entire premise upon which the company rests.
