I don't think I can/should give details, but a very close friend had a similar thing happen to him. Different Porsche dealership, and different people, but same end result. Money gone, no car. Be careful out there.

I followed this story over on the GT forum. Crazy! I think it's hard to disappear in today's world especially with a few million bucks. I'm sure they'll catch the guy.

Guy was an officer of the dealership and had authority to transact on their behalf. A first year law student should be able to hold the dealership liable for the loss.

If he truly was an officer, and had the authority to bind the business contractually, Dave Maraj is screwed

This! Plus any good business will be insured for fraud like this. Seen it many times.

It appears he was listed as an officer on the website which means he had apparent authority. That would be enough.

My guess is the boating death was for family insurance purposes as he had to know what was coming. Not a nice thing to say but it feels like it.

He is insinuating that instead of commiting suicide, he “died” in a tragic accident where the insurance would pay the policy.....
Was the body recovered?
