How Does Property Fraud Work?
The methods used to commit property scams can vary significantly, but the ultimate goal remains the same – to defraud unsuspecting individuals who are seeking to rent, purchase, or lease a property. Perpetrators of these scams often impersonate property owners, landlords, real estate agencies, property management firms, or other businesses related to the property industry to deceive their targets into providing them with money or confidential financial and personal data that can be exploited for fraudulent purposes.
