NYC Man Faces Grand Larceny Charges After Allegedly Pocketing Upfront Rent On Apartment He Didn't Own
From the New York Post NYPD Daily Blotter:
- An East Village real-estate agent turned out to be one big phony, authorities said. Renato Bardini, 48, showed an apartment seeker a place on East Third Street near First Avenue last month, authorities said.
- The victim wanted to move in and gave Bardini a $500 security deposit and a $75 “application fee.” The faux agent also showed the apartment to another victim, who gave him more than $3,000 for rent, deposits and fees. It’s not clear how the fraudster accessed the apartment.
- Bardini was charged with third-degree grand larceny, scheming to defraud and petit larceny.
