I am in search of a new adventure, looking for what I intend to be my last sales job working for anyone.

I came across this opportunity with a US company, Automotive Consultants of Hollywood. It looked like potentially an easy way to make some cash. So I threw my resume at them and it appears they are very interested in talking with me. My interest since then has waned after doing some research.

Legal - they are not breaking any laws, at least for now.

Ethics - Their practices are prohibited by manufacturer's as gray marketing. I understand there have been a number of civil cases brought against them. Essentially their contractor's take delivery and pay for luxury cars with a cashier's check. You take the car and drop it off and they pay you a nice sum of money. The car is then exported to China and sold to people for much less than if they were to buy a car in-country.

UPDATE 4/27/2017 - The company called me, I said no thanks.

Big Thank you to all my WA friends, the response was overwhelmingly to not get involved.
