Description

I responded to a rental listing on rent.com and was contacted by “Adam” who told me to fill out a $49 pre-screening application and get a renters insurance quote on Locayt.com. I should’ve known not to pay anything for a place I haven’t seen and the deal was too good to be true. Adam is a bot and I got scammed.
