Rental Property Scam

[William Lunsford]

Hey guys just wanted to share that there is a scam going on in NW Houston and probably elsewhere. People in Africa are posing as owners of properties from American Homes For Rent. They are getting people to send them money gram checks and then disappearing. Here is a sample ad. Please report these folks to zillow and elsewhere if you see them.

@Mindy Jensen @Santos Collantes anytime on sharing.  I contacted Zillow and they have blocked the user.  I anticipate they will just create a new account but I will keep monitoring the area and report anything new I see.  BTW, thanks for the good advice Mindy.
