Received Rental Application without Viewing... suspicious?

[Claudia Del Leola]

Should I be suspicious about receiving a request for rental application from someone who I have not yet spoken to much less even shown the property to? My gut tells me this is highly unusual especially considering the rent is over $4k/month.

No questions, no calls, or request for viewing... all with a move in date in the 1st week of June. I know there have been all sorts of scams popping up in the rental market. Has anyone else experienced this situation?
