Just call me Dick Tracy
Ok, I have a major update regarding the apartment scam, but I'm going to wait to post about it until I see how things play out this afternoon/evening.
Let me just say though that the gardienne is definitely NOT in on it - she's about 60 years old and is just the remplaçante for the regular one (who's on vacation). The building is absolutely huge and she's completely clueless about pretty much everything and everyone there.
Secondly, sublets are apparently illegal in France, which is why I have no legal rights and why I cannot file a report. However, the other guy and I have been playing detective and we now *think* we know who the guy is and how to contact him. Hence the "waiting to see how things play out this afternoon" bit.......Sorry to keep you in suspense, but I promise there will be a good post coming tomorrow!!

Yay! I hope this has a happy ending!
Woohoo! I hope things work out and that jerk gets what he deserves. You should publicly shame him on the internet and warn others about his scam.
wooohoo, hope to hear good news soon!!
Isn't there a droit de l'homme that says vous ne serez pas arnaquer or something? Seriously!
I hope it all ends well. Bon courage and bonne chance!
good luck! i'm excited to hear what you've found out :)
otherwise, i thought sublets were legal as long as your bailleur says it's good. that's what i've been reading on some sites, anyway...
Dear Dick Tracy,
Oh thank God! It sounds as though this is going to end well. Good luck, hope the fecker gets what's coming to him!!!
Maybe you can hire some big, mean-looking guys to confront him.
OMG, I hope you find him and make him pay both of you guys back. I can't wait for the "dénouement" of this story....
Way to go, Nancy Drew!
Yes to all of the above but stay safe!
it's like 4am over there now, but i'm still in suspense! i hope there's something good for me to read coming morning :) best of luck!
me, again
Ooh Good! Can't wait to hear the story!!
Fned.
