DFW-Crazy tenant candidate

so long story in short, put my ad on and received quite a few inquiries. Told everyone there will be an open house at xyz time. One lady called and claimed herself being in CA and could not show up that time, but she is very interested and willing to make half year rent without preview. Told her thanks for the offer however it is not fair to others who had made decision to show up that time, and she can email the application if cannot make it in person. That starts the war...she began freak out claiming I am discriminating her since she cannot show up. A few mins later, a guy claimed to be her husband called again stating 'you are talking to a CEO of a major corporation'...o well, another round of crazy bs. Shut him down pretty quick when he threatened to let his attorney to sue me for discrimination by telling him i  have attorney too and let your attorney talk to mine, if he is going to call me again, i will sue him for harassment. Is the whole thing crazy? first someone willing remotely to pay half year rent without even see? then a 'CEO' is interested in my small town house and played with me for a phone call? o well...but feel there might be more entertaining way to handle this situation, anyone?

@Michael Lee I can't tell you how many fortune 500 CEOs rent out my C and D class apartments. Happens all the time...
