Two 16-year-old girls have had their first-car dreams dashed and $10,000 allegedly stolen from them in what the victims describe as a “disgusting” scam.

The teenagers recently attempted to buy a second-hand car from a local dealership; little did they know, their seller reportedly transferred their payment to their own account before leaving the state.

Their mother told Oliver Peterson on Perth Live they had tried to solve the issue with the obviously-irate and apparently unaware dealership, but the brazen alleged theft left both in a “tight situaiton”.

What disgusts me more than anything is that an adult would do this to two teenagers,” she said.
