Quote from @Dominic Mazzarella: Quote from @James Wise: TikTok is supposed to be shut down in the U.S on 1.19.2025 unless the Supreme Court blocks or delays the U.S. ban per Trump's request.I won't pretend to have any idea how the inner workings of the data collection between China and the USA effect the world, but on a personally business not, I like it.

If you really want to dig deep, pretend to be a renter and schedule a walk-through.

It included a Google Voice phone number, and the scammer answered calls pretending to be me, using my real name.

We embrace S8 applicants, but screen them just like any other applicant.Many have an entitlement mentality and try to leverage their S8 voucher by pretending to be helpless:1) A percentage won't apply because they expect a landlord to waive application fees for them.2) Many cry broke and expect a landlord NOT to charge them a security deposit.3) Many of those same S8 tenants trying to avoid paying a security deposit, won't make an effort to call the list of nonprofits we send them that will pay their security deposit if they apply.4) A lot of them try to avoid paying for utilities.

That is a mental state you can't just pretend.

Or they run a scam where they pretend to be the landlord and steal prospective tenants security deposits.

From what I see all the people answering to me here (and there are so many) are just coming against and refusing to agree with my simple statement: "a landlord is not above the law or norms by its personal choice or presumed capability to judge what he don't know" or as well "a landlord cannot deny or miscarriage a service to a stranger without a known valid reason and at the same time pretend to be operating professionally or loyally to the moral"Basically I'm telling if you are not able to do your business correctly it would be better to find someone else than you, mainly when your ideas about "squatter" or fair treatment are coming from ignorance or completely invented. 

Have them use a different phone number and call the number listed for rentals (ie pretend they are wanting to rent a place). 

That's why there's been little activity. if you don't have to sell, you hold on.This extend and pretend will end sooner or later, and when it does, investors will be forced to sell.

I usually pretend that I am a traveler or renter searching in that market.
