Room for Rent and other rental scams
by TerranceBoyce Mon Sep 07, 2015 12:16 pm
Two out of these three bank accounts are located in Leicester and Leicester is cropping up in connection with vehicle advert scams, which are my special interest.

Don't get too involved with the companies as any criminal can impersonate an innocent company and many make a point of doing that. Even if there might be a connection, you could never prove it.

I would be interested to know where these adverts are originally posted.

The major means of disrupting their activities is by pointing out their fake adverts and websites and passing details of their bank accounts to the authorities. Any time that there appears to be a 'hot spot' it makes it possible that a whole series of accounts could be dealt with.

CAR ADVERTS - If a car seller mentions escrow - he's scamming you Never ever for any reason pay anything until you have seen and inspected the vehicle
