A dodgy landlord is being investigated by the eye of media.com after a complaint by one of our readers that his girlfriend was defrauded of 2400 pounds.

The east London landlord from Walthamstow collected the payment as part of a one month rent and one month deposit scheme, only to refuse to give 26 year old Lisa Philips a tenancy agreement for the place.

The alarmed beautician then became suspicious, and refused to continue the arrangement after her boyfriend advised her against it. However, when she asked for a refund, he refused to refund her, prompting her boyfriend, 27 year old Matthew Love to go to the property to confront the landlord.

However, he refused to answer the door when he realised who he was. Matthew contacted our team through our snap chat, urging us to look into the matter.

When we approached the landlord, he answered the door after we told him who we were. We told him his actions were illegal and have given him three days to reimburse her fully, by the end of next week Tuesday, after which we would expose him and his full address in Wood Street, Walthamstow, as well as his picture which we took upon our arrival

Individuals who refuse to give tenancy agreements usually do so because they are subletting and trying to evade detection. Desperate people in search of  property often part with money to secure the Property.  The problem is that such illegal tenants run the risk of being kicked out anytime without the protection of the law that affords tenants 2 months notice.

The dodgy landlord promised to refund the money by Tuesday, and take his name and property off gum tree. We have contacted gum tree to report the incident. The eye of media.com to look out for him and also randomly look out to see if there are any other dodgy landlords advertising there.
