Tenancy fraud
Tenancy fraud is a criminal offence and can lead to eviction.
Tenancy fraud is usually one of the following;
- sub-letting your home (or part of it) to someone we know nothing about
- not living in the property as your main home
- telling us lies about who you are or the circumstances you’re in so that we let a property to you
- key selling - passing on your key to someone else for a one-off payment.
