An Obvious Scam
Not only does the landlord Alex’s texts not make any sense whatsoever, but he is also trying to illegally get more money out of his tenant than what is owed to him. What’s even worse was that his tenant began the conversation asking why the rent wasn’t taken out of his bank account.
First, Alex tells his tenant that he has been standing in line at the bank for 12 days. That’s impossible. Then he asks the tenant to send another check when he’s already received it. Next, Alex tries to scam his tenant by requesting a new security deposit. This conversation ended with nothing being resolved.
