    Hmm ya. Income less than say 110% avg get a refund. If you’re rich please keep sending me a few bucks for the potential chance to maybe rent this apartment I totally own right next to something rich people totally love.

      Hmm, I wonder what’s the minimum you’d need to be able to skirt the fraud line. Or what other high ticket services could do something similar with minimal exposure. three-heads-thinking Could probably do all sorts of interesting Richie data collection in the process.

          You’re thinking like a square. soviet-playful

          Let’s say you know someone with a very expensive apartment. You and 5 friends each make a deal with that owner to serve as a rental “agent” to the owner giving them a cut of the application fees with an unspoken understanding that they will never approve any of your suggestions. Would that be fraud? thinkin-lenin
