Payment safety

Pay safely. Check every PI before you pay.

Fraudsters target car buyers with fake invoices and “new” bank details that look like ours. Our payment rules never change, and you can check any MAX AUTO document yourself before you send money.

Our payment rules

  1. 01

    Bank details only on your PI

    We issue every Pro Forma Invoice (PI) in your MAX AUTO account at account.maxkauto.com. Pay only to the account printed on that PI.

  2. 02

    Never changed by message

    We never send new or changed bank details by email, WhatsApp, phone or social media, whatever reason the message gives.

  3. 03

    USD transfer to our business account

    You pay by bank transfer (T/T) in USD to MAX AUTO’s business account, with the PI number as the transfer reference. We never ask for cash, cards, crypto or money-transfer apps.

Check your PI in three steps

  1. Find the QR code and the code

    Every PI has a QR code at the top of each page (A) and a 16-character verification code in the “Verify this PI before paying” box (B).

  2. Open the check page

    Scan the QR code, or go to account.maxkauto.com/verify and enter the code. The address must be exactly account.maxkauto.com. If a QR code opens any other site, stop.

  3. Pay only if everything matches

    The page must say Valid, and the PI number, amount and account ending (C) must match your PI. You can also drop the PDF onto the page to confirm it is the original. The file stays on your device.

When you pay, use the PI number as the transfer reference and ask your bank to send with charges “OUR” so the full amount arrives.

Payment receipts, PI adjustments and commercial invoices carry the same QR code and verification code. Your bank or agent can check them too, without an account.

Illustration only. Your PI shows your own vehicle, amount and code.

Stop if you see any of these

  • A message says our bank details have changed, or gives you a “new”, “temporary” or “second” account.
  • The check page does not find the code, shows anything other than Valid, or shows a different account ending.
  • A QR code or link takes you to any address other than account.maxkauto.com.
  • An email or WhatsApp message comes from an address or number not listed below, even if only one letter or digit is different.
  • Someone pushes you to pay urgently to a new account, or asks you to keep the payment secret.
  • The PI has no QR code or verification code, or the PDF looks edited.

If something looks wrong

Before you pay

Don’t pay. Don’t reply to the message or use any contact details in it. Contact us through the channels above and we’ll confirm your PI.

If you have already paid

Call your bank immediately and ask them to recall the transfer. The sooner you act, the better the chance of getting the money back. Then tell us and report it to your local police.
