I'm going to need you to send a fully refundable deposit.

but you need to do this and act quickly.

So there's a couple of red flags, right?

The price is too good to be true and you need to act fast.

There's a sense of urgency.

And so they'll ask you for two, three, $400, which a lot of people in hot rental markets think that's reasonable.

And then they find out the account has ghosted them.

Once they've zelled or PayPal or Venmo the money over, that person cuts off all communication.

They're definitely smart.

These scammers know how to find markets that are profitable for them.

And when they rip off a bunch of people at the tune of $200, $300 each and disappear...

I mean, there's a lot of fish in the sea, especially because we know that the rental market is on fire right now.

So this is happening coast to coast, according to FBI data in small towns, big cities, anywhere where someone can set up a social media account.

repost someone else's videos.

And in some cases, Andrea, they're even posing as the realtor themselves.

We spoke to a realtor who's getting hate messages and threatening messages, accusing him of scamming people when it's just his own identity that's been stolen.

And other people are posing as him and creating accounts as this realtor.

Totally.

So you want to make sure that when you are looking for an apartment or a rental home, you slow down just a little bit.

You've done your research.
