Scam information

This content is based on victim and potential victim accounts. Government agencies and legitimate business names and phone numbers are often used by scam artists to take advantage of people.

Description

There was an account, like several others, on Instagram and TikTok that showed apartments in various areas. This page in particular popped up a few times and had a significant following which lead me to inquire about prospective housing. I inquired about housing and at first, the "realtor" seemed legit. Only until we got to doing the application process. First read flag was a fee of $350. The second red flag was I put in the application and after hitting submit, immediately was hit wit an error page (never stated whether application was sent successfully, obviously) but they had already had my information. They texted me asking if I was (my government name) through text message and the website. I told them that I figured it out and that I would report them. I also stated that if my information is used, I will sue them.
