Can't get a hold of their references, claim they are employed, offer last years tax return, but when I decline and ask for a recent pay stub, I never hear from them again...

I've had so many weirdo's apply recently who turn out to be lying and are unemployed, living with friends or can't provide proof of income. One guys landlord actually told me he hadn't paid rent in a while...yet the guys co applicants were like oh he has a corporate job, I know me and the other two are unemployed but he has a corporate job...yeah, one that he can't provide an offer letter or pay stub for and he claims he started a week ago...

Stay alert out there folks....You should literally check EVERYTHING twice like you're looking for a reason to deny them.
