Hey everyone! New here.
So I was looking for an apartment and got like 2 scammy replies in a week. Same scam, they say they are not in town, they will send you the key after processing via airbnb.
They obviously make a fake temporary airbnb page, ask for your documents etc. They even send you a fake ID (which I am not attaching as I didn’t go past the preview, dunno if it contains a virus or what). The second one sent me a pdf with some bank details, so here they are:
Scammer 1: Maria Herz
Email: [email protected]
Bank account
Name: Jose Lavandeira Perez
IBAN: ES06 0073 0100 5206 1099 8599
BIC: OPENESMMXXX
Bank Name: OPEN BANK, S.A.
Bank Address: De la Castellana 24, 28046 Madrid
Object: Modernisierte 2-Zimmer-Wohnung mit Balkon in Geisselstraße 19,50823 Köln, Ehrenfeld
Second scammer: Allan Ross
Email: [email protected]
Object: Köln *** 2-Zimmer-wohnung - ab sofort zu vermieten - ***
That’s it. Now make these benchods suffer. A lot.
Also, I sent them some viruses but since they were able to reply them I guess they didn’t open them. If you have any ideas or suggestions on how to take action, let me know
