Rental scam
In September 2011 I reached an agreed rental with a lady from the villages at an agreed price and sent a check for $700.00 as security for the rental of the months of February/March 2012. My only contact was a cell phone number which after about a month I started calling with no answer. In late November I sent a letter saying we need to work out the details for the rental. Her cell phone was no longer available after 5 days. I then sent a registered letter return receipt requested which she did not pick up. When she cashed my check the sheriffs department became involved. When I left late march the attorney generals office came into the picture. Just am wondering how many others have been scammed by this women. Send me a PM and I will return her name.
I am back in the villages for 2 months again. During the past year I received a letter from seniors vs crime saying they could do nothing and were turning the case over to the sheriff. Later last year I recieved a letter from the sheriff detective saying that my case was now changed from active to inactive because they did not know who cashed the check. I do not know any financial (bank or other) institution that would cash an out of state check without proper ID.
Because of this now any county in the state where this women may get picked up will not know about my case in lake county. The info is only known in lake county.
Great isn't it.
