Jeff Kershner warns dealers about New Car America after a dealer discovered a 'customer' admitted being paid $5 per lead form submission via a work-from-home scheme, with Dealix ultimately crediting the dealer for the fraudulent leads. The company's representative (Gary) responded defending the business and offering an alternative explanation, while community members debated the evidence and broader issues with third-party lead quality and incentivized lead generation. The key takeaway is that incentivized or arbitrage-sourced leads are a real risk in the third-party lead ecosystem, and dealers should vet providers carefully.
