Rental Listing Scam / Fraud

[Andrew Luong]

Hey Team -

Reaching out to you guys here as I have a new and interesting situation arise for a rental home listing in Sacramento.  At a high level, I had recently advertised my listing on a Zillow and a few sites but then was notified by two separate, potential residents that they had seen the home listed on Craigslist for cheaper.

I'm currently investigating (posing as a potential applicant) but am curious to see if someone else has seen this happen.  If so, what are possible repercussions?  Here are some thoughts - 

• Scamming people of hard earned money for an "application"
• Potentially breaking into my property
• False leases

Any other thoughts?

Thanks & cheers,

Andrew
