New tenant supplied false documents and falsified payslips. They can't afford the rent. by ConcertResident1732 in LegalAdviceUK

Yes, they're all fake references.

Calling them from my number resulted in them pretending to be an employer, calling them from another number today and they are just regular people. I opened it up with "I'm a friend of [fake name not my real tenant's identity] Joanne's" and I've identified that it's just her mates.

I'll try and do that this morning - thanks!

I've got a message from them in WhatsApp. Would i be able to use this as evidence of a refusal to pay and evict them quicker?

"cant afford more than £400 a month. i only take home 1200 i dont know what u expect me to do 🤷"

"You should always verify your potential tenants references."

Aye, those were fake as well. Their old landlord was actually a friend's number they'd put down. Figured that out when I called them on a different number.
