STUDENT SCAM ALERT!
It’s that time of the year again, scammers are targeting students!
What’s happening: Some individuals are taking rent money and redirecting students to KPA, without proper contracts or property viewings. Remember: KPA will NEVER ask for deposits or payments without a legal contract and a viewing.
How the scam works:
-
Fake listings with below-market rents in prime areas.
-
No deposit required, or they demand full rent upfront.
Red flags to watch:
-
Payments to personal accounts instead of company accounts.
-
Requests for money before seeing the property.
Protect yourself & others:
-
Always view the property first.
-
Check banking details – should be a company account.

Let’s keep our student community safe!
