Ya know, I was really trying to leave it behind, but I just heard a verrry similar story to my own and after that? NO. "They said something about my check not going through and I only have a few days to give them a bank certified check."
Saaaame here brother and they destroyed my ability to get a decent home for YEARS, even after I submitted a certified check for $200 more than rent of "other" fees. For what? So the billion dollar corporation can squeeze a few more bucks out of the working man in their overpriced bungalows with busted amenities?
Even the judge was surprised that I had already given them a certified check over $1.5k for a 600 sqr/ft 1 bedroom with poorly finished counter tops and a lopsided balcony and a constantly breaking elevator a month earlier and three days BEFORE they even filed (as I later found out).
They bold-faced lied on court documents that they had not received it when I showed up to appeal their fraudulent filing. Then they conveniently returned that check/evidence they withheld while I was in court with that judge.
Unfortunately for me and verrrry conveniently for them, my information and money was stolen directly out of my bank account on the EXACT DAY I had to make a second appeal payment. Information that could've been sold byyy some sleazy slum lords with my banking info trying to cover their asses for instance.
Anyways after this tore my family apart and a year of AirBnBs and a full 6 month lease downpayment I got them to email about yet ANOTHER fraudulent filing I didn't even know about that was "internally dismissed due to satisfactory payment." Because I gave them the check, they forgot, I went on vacation and then they lied that they were going to but did not file because they forgot I already paid.
When I asked the regional manager of Drucker and Falk to sign her statement of fact that according to their own company records that filing was dismissed due to satisfactory payment because once filed, it cannot be removed from the court system for YEARS, I got a cease and desist.
Now, because this manager had given zero indication of her unwillingness to perform this basic formality after her company ruined my life, I'm guessing her higher ups made that decision to once again cover their asses.
All I have to say to that is just try me and prepare for scorched earth hellfire and brimstone because it sounds like you folks have a class action cooking already. I kept my receipts, how bout you guys for your residents' stolen money, honey?
They took advantage of me because they knew I was already dealing with one scamming company, the guy my info was sold to has finally been tracked down across 3 states, who's next? NEVER let these people take advantage of you or your money, I for one, will never be letting that happen ever again.
