Michael Gonzales exploited a loophole in Tesla's online ordering system that allowed him to take delivery of five Tesla vehicles without paying.
A Vermont man who managed to trick Tesla into delivering him five cars worth $560,000 without paying was sentenced to four years in prison. According to federal prosecutors , Michael Gonzales exploited a loophole in the automaker's online ordering system that allowed him to take delivery of five Tesla vehicles although he had no intention to pay. He later sold three of the vehicles to unsuspecting buyers at knockdown prices totaling $231,900.
A week later, Tesla received notice that there were insufficient funds in Gonzalez's account to complete the transaction. By the end of December 2018, Gonzales had sold the Model 3 to a used-car dealer for $42,000. Prosecutors said he repeated the scheme four more times over the following year, each time for a Model X worth around $150,000. In two cases, he used the name of a girlfriend or ex-girlfriend as the buyer instead of his own.
