Can someone transfer title of your car to their name if the title was put up for collateral for a bail bond and the bond is paid and the title is not released to the owner of the car?

If the bond is paid, why is the title not released to the owner of the car? If the owner of the car forfeited the title by skipping out, and another person came and bought that title by paying the bond, then yes, another person can transfer the title to their name ... because they bought it by paying off your bond.

What can you do if you bought a car but the seller was not the vehicle's owner and now you have to do the title transfer but you don't have the former owner's information?

It sounds like you bought a stolen car. You cannot register a Title if you do not have a Title signed over to you with the Registered Owner's signature. If this is your situation, you can take the SELLER to small claims court to return your money. But, in the meantime, take the car to the police to see if it is stolen. If it is and you're caught driving / in possession of it, YOU can be charged.
