squatters

[Devany]

This is happening all over Norther CA in forclosed properties. A person breaks in and changes locks swiftly, then puts an ad in the paper and Craigs list "for rent" they collect first and last months rent and security and before the bank realizes it tenants move in.

The scammer walks away with several thousand dollars (usually cash) and the bank has to hire the sheriff to evict the poor dupes who rented the place. Yet another problem related to the unregulated banking!

Here's one for everyone! How about squatters telling other squatters that they own the land and then charging rent to the new squatters who really think they are tenants. They even built cabins for "their tenants", i have had to deal with this situation. The perps got away with it and a nice income for themselves for several months.
