1 --- 2 title: "My House Is Not for Rent" 3 date: 2023-10-10T20:04:20-07:00 4 draft: false 5 categories: 6 - Personal 7 --- 8 9 This is a departure from the things I normally post here, but I want to put 10 an important PSA on the internet... and hopefully prevent some folks from 11 getting ripped off. 12 13 1. I may be the only "Eamon Caddigan" there is, and I'm almost certainly the 14 only one in Southern California 15 2. My house is **not for rent** 16 17 Scammers are using readily available information[^info] to pose as landlords 18 and steal people's money by asking for "application fees" to properties they 19 don't own. I've had several families come by my house, either to warn me 20 about the scam or (more tragically) to find out what happened to their 21 money. It's mildly inconvenient for me, but so much worse for anybody who's 22 wasted their time or money on this. 23 24 I'll elaborate on this, but I just had another couple knock on my door after 25 dinner and I need to get the word out. 26 27 [^info]: Photos from old real estate listings and public property records.
