Tenants pulling a scam

[Dan Crenshaw]

So here’s a silly scam that I’ve never read about. I use Cozy as a PM tool, and as great as they are, they were no help on this one.

So I just evicted one of my tenants, and right before she left, she disputed her last rent payment with her bank. And after the payment was deducted from my account and deposited back into hers, she disputed the prior months rent as well. That one is currently pending. Has anyone else run into a scam like this? A trash move by a trash tenant for sure!

When I initially set up my accounts with Cozy, I added another account specifically for Cozy to deposit to. When the rents hit that account, they immediately get transferred to other accounts. I was hoping to be able to avoid this exact scenario but haven't been tested to see if it works. Hopefully I'll never have to find out.
