One of the victims, 19, was one of thee victims of a scam that left him and seven others out of pocket for the past seven weeks. The victim and his friends were duped out of thousands by two Brooklyn men posing as landlords of a luxurious spacious loft in Williamsburg.
air charter travel One of the victims, a psychology student at the University of Limerick, was staying with his uncle in the city for a few days when a friend also in New York for the summer notified him that she had found "an amazing" loft apartment on Craigslist.
"The ad sounded amazing. It said the loft had all the amenities, including air conditioning, roof access, gym access, laundry air charter travel facilities, everything we needed for a comfortable summer," One of the victims told the Irish Voice during his lunch break on Tuesday.
While the loft was apparently being renovated into an eight-bedroom apartment, one of the victims and his friends were allowed to sleep on the floor of another apartment, which Eaddy and Barron used as an apartment too.
"It was getting crazy because the tenants in this apartment were becoming outraged that there was so many of us sleeping on their floor, so finally we were kicked out and had to find our own place with no money cause we had handed it over for the rent," he explains.
One of the victims and the rest of the students were told that apartment would be ready to move into on June 15. That date was pushed back to 17, then to 20 then to 23, and finally they were told it would be the middle of July before it would be ready.
One of the victim air charter travel s first job in Coney Island air charter travel saw him bussing tables and earning $7 an hour. He was just about able to feed himself. He recently stared a job in a hotel in Times Square, but his weekly income is $270 a week.
"One night at 3 a.m. after work in Coney Island I went back to the apartment we were given to tide us over and these guys (Eaddy and Barron) told me I couldn't stay there because the place was too full, so I had to take all my gear and ride the subway to a hostel on the Upper East Side," one of the victims said.
The weekend of July 4 the students were told they could start to move in their gear. Finally light at the end of the tunnel they thought. That was until one of the victims air charter travel had dropped off his gear in the still unfinished loft and upon returning discovered that the place was locked up.
According to one of the victims, the landlord told them at a meeting last week that the building air charter travel was for commercial business air charter travel only and never intended or allowed legally to be turned into apartments. Eaddy and Barron had a verbal contract with the landlord to rent the loft for the purpose of shooting videos.
Eaddy and Barron would not return their calls, and finally after days of persistence one of the victims managed to get only $80 back from the two men. He is still waiting on the remainder of his money, as are the rest of the Irish students.

Its a shame how many people get scammed on the Internet, especially with apartment rentals. These students started off on the right foot, asking to visit the property before handing over any money, but their vigilance unfortunately went downhill from there. I understand people can get excited over the thought of what could be when presented with an offer that seems too good to be true. But I would never rent an apartment that is still under construction with the promise that it will be transformed into something air charter travel completely different by the time I move in.
It might have been a good idea for these Irish students to have asked to see a copy of the lease. The lease would have likely said for commercial use only not residential, that would be the next clue that something isn t right. And a verbal air charter travel lease is just about useless.
Wow! What s funny is that I responded to the same ad and the Desmond air charter travel guy called and chatted me up a bit. However, I was in a position to take my time and to be picky. When he said that it was going to be a communal or dorm type of setting, that turned me off right there.
What s funny is the conversation shifted to what I do as he said he possibly wanted to hire me. I m a freelancer, and he said he wanted to see my FB profile. I keep it locked up pretty tight, but made an exception. He never followed up with me via message or phone call, so I, eventually removed him maybe 2 or 3 weeks after that.
It was just really odd the way he described the set-up and, since I was living in Williamsburg at that time, I had a pretty clear idea of how apartments were set up. Usually it s a range of newer buildings that are pretty expensive, air charter travel renovated lofts (which is what he was making this sound like it would be), or older brownstone style buildings. Since I d lived in the latter and was lucky enough to currently be in a newer building when he contacted me, I decided to pass on a communal loft setting. I m sad to here these folks got ripped off by him and his partner.
