Evansville police have received several calls from residents falling victim to a rental property scam.
Potential tenants respond to someone pretending to represent a property on social media.
The victim puts up the money and later finds out the person receiving the money had no sway over the property.
Most of the scammers aren’t Evansville residents but can mimic property listings.
They ask for money to be sent immediately and sometimes in unusual manners.
