This person pretended to be a landlord of a house my fiancÀ© and I were interested in renting. Told me his wife and himself were moving to Oklahoma and we’re interested in still renting the place for $1100 to have someone take care of it, and we needed a good reference. This house went off the market 2 days after I messaged the actual owner so I know this was too good to be true.

Same Oklahoma story as others and probably the same Durham NH house in question. Asked $1200 including utilities and wanted us to send money so they could send us keys. No paperwork sent to make it legit. We aren’t far from the area so even went to look at house and someone clearly lives there. When questioned they said it was not occupied and not furnished (clearly false) be careful everyone!
