Have had a rash of fake pay checks lately. Hope this isn't a trend. 4 appts and 3 flaky looking pay stubs. One who gave wrong SSI number and one coming off maternity leave -- from her fathers company but shes living with 4 kids with her mom. One guy mid 30's applying who's been living with mom-- said mom's getting better now????

Really strange bunch for end/mid of October. Had one app approved filled in the lease -- getting ready to sign and never showed up..... never called either.??????????????????

This is a concern...sometimes in the past if everything else checked out, I've used paystubs only to verify employment in the past because it was so difficult getting a hold of the employer to verify, or the company used The Work Number for verifications. --72.188.xxx.xxx

I look at craigs list often to find farm implements and cruise into the housing also, at least 1 person selling fake documents to help you get the nicer car loan, apartment, home loan - and someone must be buying them thinking we (as well as loaning companies) don't check farther than simply reading the name and hoping there is a match to the address shown on a driver license - screen x 3. --76.188.xxx.xx

IMHO, as effective tenant screening becomes the norm for the mom and pop LL’s, Bad tenants are changing their tactics because the old ways just won’t work nowadays.

LL’s had better raise their minimum standards. --72.172.xxx.xx

Maybe I'm going to start requiring a TSA-approved Driver's License. I know to get mine I had to provide all kinds of matching docs (passport, SS card, something else I forget...) --50.82.xxx.xx

The most difficult barrier to screening was the widespread move to cell phones, making it impossible to verify to whom you are speaking. No more reverse directory to see if that phone number really belongs to the landlord or to the supervisor. --174.216.xx.xxx

I have a tenant that is trying to convince me of an ESA. She hands me this badge that you can get online for $30. --73.247.xxx.xxx
