Michael Gonzalez took delivery of five Tesla vehicles after providing the carmaker with a bank account with insufficient funds
A 34-year-old man from Shelburne, Vermont will be spending the next four years behind bars after admitting to taking delivery of five new Tesla vehicles without paying them as part of a simple order loophole he discovered. In September 2018, Michael Gonzalez placed an order for a Tesla Model 3 costing $58,000 through the company’s website. He provided a $2,500 deposit and was notified the following month that the car was ready for delivery.
In some cases, he would enter the name of a girlfriend or ex-girlfriend as the buyer, provide Tesla with account details with insufficient funds, and then take delivery of the vehicle. Market Watch reports he sold one Model X on Craigslist for $108,000 and one on eBay for $97,000.
