She was an employee of that company at that time, and is legally required to act in good faith as an agent for that leasing agency. She accepted the payments as a representative of the company and provided them receipts. Once that transaction was completed, the tennent's rent was legally paid. Any competent judge would throw this eviction out on it's face because legally, this is really a case of theft between the leasing agency and their ex-employee. She didn't steal from the tennents. She stole from the complex.

I went through the same Thing single mother of four here, I was staying in a low income apartment brand new the local housing authority didn’t manage the property the owners were based out in Atlanta. Long story short, the property manager was doing something in the system playing with numbers and stating I owed a balance she did it with other tenants as well and I for sure know she was pocketing money smh I ended up moving out getting evicted I got tired of always having a balance for no reason it didn’t serve of purpose of me being on low income when I’m magically always owing and paying on time. I tried to fight it in court and also sought out legal counsel through a legal aid for low income recipients, and unfortunately had to file bankruptcy because I knew I would have a hard time finding a place after that. Fast forward this happened in 2019 and then Covid hit…a lot of people try to get over on people that are on low income because they associate low income with illiteracy and lack of knowledge of there legal rights. I even tried to contact my local housing authority and they didn’t want to have nothing to do with it stating they don’t manage my property. Even tried to reach out to the company and no response, and also HUDS fraud hotline.

they will likely win due to the employee working on behalf of the landlord thus they dont owe however they will need to find somewhere else to live which is ok since they dont need to pay rent for 3-4 months since they have been locked out of the virtual portal they can also class action counter sue 4 physical/mental/emotional trauma by being forced through civil litigation processes

[@Ash-83]

While the landlord may not allow them into the portal to pay the rent they still have to put that rent into a separate escrow account in order to pay any and all rent due the landlord at the end of the judicial process. Also they wouldn't have incurred physical distress and mental/emotional distress is a hard thing to prove typically requiring some sort of medical documentation of said distress the shows an onset after the initial event. Saying I cried about it and got mad does not make a emotional distress case. Now, will a judge throw out the evictions, most likely, the leasing agent was acting as a representative of the landlord/property when she send out those messages, took their money, zeroed out their portal AND provided receipts leaving lengthy digital paper trail of proof. The landlord needs to go after her not the tenants.

[@sleepwalker29]

The apartment manager is required to have a Texas real estate license from the Texas Real Estate Commission. You can check online to see if they are licensed. They need a license to accept fees for a 3rd party, to negotiate or increase rent, and to sign a lease. All leases are illegal fraud, and VOID if they are not licensed. Tyler Police, Bullard, and Troup police officers live in Tyler appartments and receive 50% discount on rent by a criminal operating without a license.Cops get 15 years for accepting illegal bribes. Grande Hill Estates is illegally ran and gives cops a bribe so they don't arrest her. Fraud is a felony. So each lease contract is a felony charge for the manager. Managers are also required to take tenents to small claims court to try to collect rent before reporting to the federal credit bureau. But they can't because they have no license to go to court to collect for a 3rd party. So reporting to the credit bureau without going to court first is slso credit fraud. Another felony charge for a manager with no license. Most apartment managers in Tyler with no license are married to cops. Deer Tree appartments is another illegally ran by a sheriffs wife last I seen. TAA lease agreement contracts are not legal in Texas courts. Only lease agreements promlogated by the state or created by a attorney are legal in court. TREC uses promlogated contracts created by the state. So a real estate licensee can not sign or use a Texas Apartment Association contract without losing theumir license. Real estate professionals use promlogated contracts created by the state. TAA is part of NAA or National Apartment Associstion which is a corporation, and not a state organization. The FBI in Tyler should bust every cop taking bribes or discount on rent from managers with no license. But this is all over Texas. All apartments in Texas are illegal businesses. They don't follow the law. Every apartment manager in Texas needs to have a real estate license to accept rent for a 3rd party, and to increase rent or negotiate a lease.

It’s so crazy that they trusted a women that said “yes girl you can trust me” this is ratchet and sooo messy especially for my people. I’m so glad they are pursuing more action to scam innocent people like it’s so sad to do this when times are rough smh.

So basicly the worker stole their money and was fired, instead of the complex making it right they are trying to get more money out of the victims and didnt press charges against the worker

[@JSmithRecords]

It was an inside job. Not a coincidence that the office refused to comment on the situation.

[@mackcity74gdn89]

They never got the money the scammer did

[@JSmithRecords]

@@mackcity74gdn89 i think they did. Because why would the office lock them out of their portal instead of allowing them to pay? If they truly owe "double rent", why not allow them to pay? Apartments just want their money, they don't want people out.. unless they WANT them out. And sending eviction notice to be out in 3 days? AND THEN refusing to comment on the situation to the news? Sounds like a botched plan to get these people out. They were betting they were just gonna leave and not go to the news

Landlords charge as much as they can, and employers pay as little as they can. What do you expect? Most times it amazes me greatly how I moved from an average lifestyle to earning over $63k per month, Utter shock is the word. I have understood a lot in the past few years that there are lots of opportunities in the financial market. The only thing is to know where to invest…

[@Florencecoxx]

I agree with you and I believe that the secret to financial stability is having the right investment ideas to enable you earn more money, I don’t know who agrees with me but either way I recommend either real estate or bitcoin and stocks.

@@izagdlife That won't bother you if you trade with a professional like *Sarah Alma Martinez* my consultant. I found her on a CNBC interview where she was featured and reached out to her afterwards. She has since provide entry and exit points on the securities I focus on. I basically follow her trade pattern and haven’t regretted doing so.

[@chinaarlene7035]

My company did it back in 2011. It wasn't a scam, it was to increase occupany during a takeover. It happens, just rare. If they went to the office and confirmed it, it's easy to believe it's legit. Now the company will have to abide by it.

This is why I pay my rent online myself and get a receipt right up front. Period no questions asked. As an individual that majored in Criminal Justice I was taught to always beware of such scams. If it seems too good to be true , believe me it is. I just hope these ladies receive Justice and learn from this lesson never to trust anything at face value. Always get more than one verification and make sure if it’s word of mouth make that individual puts it in writing explaining the deal as well as getting a receipt up front. ❤
