9. Rental scams
This is a bit more complex scam and it requires some planning on the part of the scammer. He or she rents an apartment with false documents and then place an add renting it out. After several meetings with prospective tenants and collecting money for first and last rent and security deposit, all of them are given the same date when they can move in. By the time all victims arrive at their new home, the scammer is far away.
