A South San Francisco couple searching for an apartment were scammed after using the website Zillow, according to police.
The couple was looking for a rental in San Francisco in February when they found a desirable listing for $815, according to South San Francisco police.
A person claiming to be the property owner instructed the victims to transfer $815 via a MoneyGram service to Jacqueline Garcia in Kansas City, Missouri. The fictitious property owner also instructed the victims to provide the reference number so the transferred funds could be collected from any MoneyGram location, according to police.
The scammers promised keys to the rental apartment would be mailed to the victims after the money was received but the keys were never sent. All communications about the rental were made over email and ceased after the money was transferred, according to police.
Anyone with information or who believes they may be a victim of this type of confidence scam should contact South San Francisco police at (650) 877-8900.
