Scammers be ware

You mean this Adam guy calls around for an inspection?
What the hell is wrong with that?

Just got this text 2 days ago.

“Good Day, Am Susan Alan, will you be availableto INSPECT a new house, I am interested in purchasing which am already in agreement with the seller.”

Me: Good Day Susan, will you be attending the inspection? If not, I only accept payment through PayPal.

End of conversation. :grinning:

Wait a minute Kevin, Susan Alan asked me last week! I told her I only accept cash. Probably why she asked you :rofl:
Lately, I have been getting more of these for some reason.

Yeah the last guy that asked for this (and the inclusion of the lot size is always a dead giveaway…), I told him that I highly recommend my inspection for ROUS service (Rodents Of Unusual Size). It is a bit spendy given that I have to put on tactical protection gear.

Here’s another one for the list that I got on Dec 15, 2022:
Hello, my name is Kenneth Goslyn, and I’m in the process of negotiating with the seller of a new house that I’m interested in buying. I need a professional home inspection of the property. Are you available to? And where exactly are you?

  • I respond with company info

Good, can I pay you with a cashier’s or bank-certified check? Just so you know, there will be extra money in the check you will receive. You must deduct your fees plus an additional $100 for gas after the check has been cleared and cashed,m and the remaining money should be given to the floor installer. I’m hoping I can rely on you for this payment.

  • My response: Sorry, I don’t do third-party payments. Also don’t know why I would be asked to pay others - that’s your job.

After that - crickets. Reading this forum confirms that others on here have been bothered by these same scammers
