The fiddle is classic fraud generally done in Nigeria. You wire plutocrat to them in exchange for commodity but they no way follow through. The fiddle is getting more sophisticated. The culprits are stealing images of a real houses for rent and using an dispatch address with the possessors name in it.
The Velez family fell for it, transferring$ 200 to hold the house. Suzie told us” That is all we had.” If they had more they would have transferred it. The keys no way came.
Realtor Janie Coffey blogged about this fiddle in August onsmartypantsmama.com. Caroline Murphy also lately blogged about the fiddle .
” I’d like to say do your exploration. But indeed with some introductory exploration you still would have fallen for this.” Murphy said. In front of journalist David Sutta, Murphy called the fiddle artist in Nigeria who claimed he possessed her house. She asked him” What’s your name?” Moments latterly he hung up.
Coffey has seen the fiddle across Miami- Dade County. They move from house to house as people catch on.
Her stylish advice,” If it seems to good to be true it’s too good to be true.”
Unfortunately for the Velez family the advice came too late.
” I feel really bad because I am poor. And I’ve to start each over again.” Salvador said.
generally there’s little or no expedient if you get caught by this fiddle because the plutocrat has left the country.
The stylish advice besides if it sounds too good to be true do not follow it, is to hire a Realtor. It’s a free service for renters.
