CarTagz.com – CA Registration Renewal

Trying to renew your car registration in California? A TINA.org reader wants to make sure you don’t get fooled by this Google ad:

While trying to renew her registration, our reader was briefly confused as to whether the site on the top of the Google results was the DMV’s website.

It was not. CarTagz.com is a registration service that will charge you fees to renew your vehicle registration, which, according to our reader, is something you can do yourself online through the California DMV website without paying any extra non-DMV fees to CarTagz.

California consumers should think about whether CarTagz is the right service for their registration needs. Be wary of Google ads that try to grab your eye before you get to the website you’re really looking for.
