Let's Rip Off The Landlord: 866-Eviction...WHAT CRUMBAGS

[John Thedford]

Just finished reading an article regarding evictions in CA. There are services that specialize in screwing landlords and buying time, in many instances many months, where tenants aren't paying rent. A quote from Julian Moutan says they are "just helping the little guy". He said a few months of rent-free housing isn't much to ask of landlords, "considering how high the rents are in Calfornia". These people make me sick. Their opinion is: it's OK to cheat someone else. What if THEY were the ones being cheated? The article is in the LA Times and is a column "Eviction system allows itself to be gamed, frustrating landlords". The company quoted in the article is called 866-Eviction. If you google them, you will see they are listed as "eviction delay experts".  So, you get a shady tenant who games the system, cheats landlords as a practice, and a company that helps them with the scam. PATHETIC!
