AAACV8 ~ Below is some rather disturbing news from "WhichCar". Facebook Twitter Google Plus Mail EV automaker’s payment method leaves buyers reeling as criminals swoop in and take their cash Two Tesla buyers in Australia claim to have lost tens of thousands of dollars each to criminals because the car company has an unsecured payment method. According to ABC, the American EV automaker has been asking clients to pay for its vehicles via unprotected email invoices. In one instance, Andrea Hammond from Western Australia, who had paid a deposit online for a Tesla Model 3, was emailed an invoice by Tesla which required her to make a final payment of $74,647.62. What Ms Hammond claims she didn’t know is that the email had been intercepted by hackers, who had altered the payment details in the invoice.
