Fake Landlords
There is a well-known issue with fake landlords renting out properties taking rent and deposits and then the tenant discovers they have no legal right to the property.

Never pay a landlord cash, instead pay it directly into their bank account
This helps a lot in tracking down scammers
Only pay money into a UK bank account
If the property is located in Wales check the landlord is registered on RentSmartWales
