The man rented a BMW for 700,000 and sold it for 200,000. He was chased online. How to characterize his behavior?

As the saying goes, there are no wonders in the world. Not long ago, a man from Xiyi mortgaged his rented BMW worth 700,000 yuan to a second-hand car dealer in Yueyang, Hunan for 200,000 yuan. Therefore, he was chased by the police online. As soon as this incident came out, it sparked heated discussions. Someone commented that one dares to sell and the other dares to buy. The man's behavior was undoubtedly illegal and fraudulent, and at the same time? Cheating at both ends? . Based on the judgment of Professor Chen Xingliang, the editor will give you an explanation of the legal truth.

1. Basic situation of the incident. A local car rental company in Xi'an reported to the police that a man rented a BMW worth 700,000 yuan in a garage, and subsequently lost contact with both the person and the car. The police reviewed the surveillance and found that the car had appeared in Yueyang, Hunan, so they rushed to the scene to investigate. Finally, they found the car at a used car dealer. The man mortgaged the car to a second-hand car dealer at a low price of 200,000 yuan. I don’t know what to do, and I am currently being chased online by the police.

Second, the consequences that the man needs to face in terms of criminal law. From the perspective of criminal law, the man undoubtedly committed the crime of contract fraud because he rented the car with a subjective criminal purpose and violated the contract's prohibition on reselling or mortgaging the vehicle, intending to obtain benefits from illegal possession of the vehicle through renting the car. According to Article 224 of the Criminal Law, those who commit contract fraud will generally be sentenced to fixed-term imprisonment of not more than three years or criminal detention, and may also be fined or alone.

Third, the legal responsibilities that need to be borne at the civil law level. Because men's behavior belongs to? Cheating at both ends? Will his dealings with the used car dealer no longer be treated as separate criminal offenses, but as stolen property? Selling stolen goods? Behavior. From the perspective of civil law, it constitutes civil fraud and is a revocable act. Second-hand car dealers can request to restore the car to its original condition and return 200,000 yuan.

To sum up, the man’s behavior was very stupid. In order to become an online fugitive for 200,000 yuan, I don’t know when he will wake up, find a way to surrender, and strive for leniency.
