I think I’ve been scammed..
(Milwaukee,Wi) So about 4 or 5 days ago, my girl & I went to check out a house we considered moving into(found on P.A.M residents website). We really liked the house a lot. But there was a few red flags, in which the guy who was supposed to be touring us through the house, actually stayed outside the whole time while the current tenant walked us through. After completing the tour we went back outside to ask the renter guy a few questions which he had no answer for, like what utilities are included & which ones are we responsible for?!…The guy had nothing. But that’s not the craziest part, it gets worse. Couple days go by & they contacted my girlfriend back. She wasn’t able to answer the phone at the moment but they did leave a voicemail letting us know we’ve been approved. With this news we were really excited & proceeded with the final parts of the application which was where the security deposit was required. We sent it over not even 2 hours later. It was a pending charge for about a day & then it was finally took out. And the. finally, today we just got a call from the property telling us we’ve not been selected because someone else sent their deposit in before we did……I’m not sure if that’s legal or not but it seems pretty sketchy that they will approve & confirm our spot while also doing it for someone else at the same time. Now we have to wait 3-5 business days for the deposit to be refunded & we have to search for another house before our lease end which is next month
