If you were unfortunate enough to get tricked by a rental scam, there are a few steps that you can take. You may be surprised at how many people are tricked by some of these scams through the years and even those who swore they would never fall for some of these tricks will have to worry about it as well. Many scammers are good at what they do and detecting whether there was a scam or not can be really difficult.

 

Victims of these rental scams may choose not to report the incident because they are embarrassed and feel like they should be ashamed. But reports are important because they help spread more awareness of the problem and allow others to realize that these do exist so they can be on the lookout. If you are a victim of a rental scam, some of the immediate actions that you need to take include:

 

# Freeze your credit: This will block anyone who may take your information and try to open up some more credit in. your name. This can be done in just a few clicks if you know where to work.

# Try to reverse your payments: You can contact the financial institution or the app to see whether they are willing to reverse the payment and get some of the money back to you.

# Record all of the communications that you had with the scammer. This can include the original listing, your texts and emails, and anything else that is important.

# File a report with local authorities and the FTC: This will help you dispute some of the fraudulent charges and be prepared for issues with identity theft as well.

# Report the scam listing to the FTC and to the FBI’s Internet Crime Complaint Center.

# Monitor your credit to see whether the scammer is trying to use it or not. You can get alerts to help you figure out whether some issues with identity theft are going to be a problem here.
