News August 2005 Rental
Scams Philip
Suter of jmlvillas.com contacted Karen Tait the Editor of French Property News
regarding the rental scams that jmlvillas.com clients had
been experiencing. In her editorial 
she wrote" A current scam in the gîte market involves the so-called holidaymaker
paying by cheque, but 'accidentally' overpaying. The gîte ownerpays the extra
back, then finds the original cheque bounces and surprise surprise, the 'holidaymaker'
vanishes, leaving them out of pocket. While
these stories are clearly a concern, it's not so difficult to protect yourself.
Firstly, anything that seems too good to be true, usually is too good to be true.
Employ a little common sens - if people act strangely or want to do things differently
to the norm, ask yourself why? Don't get drawn in, report anything suspicious
to the police and wait for a genuine and honest buyer." Thanks
