Victim Location 19973
Type of a scam Rental

I am a REALTOR in Seaford, DE. I currently have my Sister's house listed. Soon after, I started getting inquiries about renting it and that they saw the rental on Facebook Marketplace. I had my sister research this and it was! She requested it be removed. I put signs up in the window saying that this house is not for rent and that the Facebook ad, but the scammers wrote a small footnote on their e-mail (that they sent to people who inquire) saying that they did that to keep some undesirable applicants away. The rent was placed at $700/month, incredibly low for this area and property. It should be noted that utilities ARE included (oil heat, electric, A/C etc.), which could run as much as $500/ month. I have since placed a copy of the property records in the window indicating my Sister's ownership. The property is currently under contract of sale. This is the narrative he placed in his e-mail:

Thanks for the interest you showed in my property, am so sorry for replying late have been so busy with work, My initial plan was to sell out the property, but the agent in-charge was not honest with the process at all cause of his selfish interest, so i am not working with the Realtor anymore and I have collected the keys from them, the for sale sign is still in the yard because am not in town but you have nothing to worry about, is noting, that was why I decided to handle the rental process myself.

The house is ready to be moved in as soon as possible, I decided to rent it out because of my wife and we are going to spend more time here in OHIO, about 3 years due to my job promotion as the new general manager, The address is *** * Atlanta Cir, SEAFORD, DE 19973. I want you to drive down to the house asap, you can peep through the window for better view of the inside and make sure you look around so you can see how the property is been taken good care of, this is not about the money at all but a tenant who will take good care of the house.

The rent is $750 and the security deposit is $1000, and i want you to know that payment will not be received until all paperwork are signed by both parties, only interested and ready to move in tenant should get back to me all utilities are included except trash, pets are allowed but with a fee of $150.

NOTE:

Please im not in town to walk you in the property. If what you see peeping through the window pleases you get back to me and lets proceed to the paperwork. Thanks

I hope nobody is naïve enough to send money. Attached is a copy of the rental application, which any novice would note some of the questions are illegal to ask.
