In McKinney, an investigation is underway to help that family recover thousands of dollars lost on a fraudulent home rental agreement.
When mold started appearing inside her McKinney apartment, Breanna Davila wanted to move her family that includes a 9-month-old baby. The two-story home only a few miles away was just what the family wanted.
Davila says she was able to set up a tour of the house through a phone call with a man claiming to be the owner who even was able to help her go online and open the vacant home's front door lock box. A total of $4,000 was transferred and the Davila's moved in without ever meeting the owner in person.
"...we can confirm that the alleged scammer is not an employee of or affiliated with FirstKey Homes, and we are cooperating with the criminal investigation by the police."With the scramble on rentals right now, everybody trying to get into a rental unit, that demand has caused the crooks to come back.
