Formentera rental scam: fraudsters use Ferrer's name
Responsible for this content: Frank Menze
People looking to rent a home on the island of Formentera are being targeted by fraudsters using Alejandra Ferrer’s identity. The former president of the Formentera Island Council made the scam public on Wednesday, 11 November. She has reported it to the Guardia Civil and warns anyone offered a rental in her name not to pay.
In a social media post, Ferrer said she owns no flat on the island of Ibiza, has no homes to rent and does not act as a go-between in property deals. She said the fraud exploits the need and hope of people looking for a home.
