You would think this is a foolproof way of getting a perfect house. But as I discovered on my first outing with an agent from one of the popular renting apps, catfishing isn’t just restricted to dating sites. We agreed to meet so that he could show me an apartment I’d set my heart on, only to be taken to a different apartment entirely. Had it been as good as the one I’d seen, I wouldn’t have had a reason to complain.
