Linden Police Detectives are attempting to identify a woman who was involved in an apartment rental scam in early August.

The woman and a male accomplice took several thousand dollars from multiple victims, mostly Hispanic, who were looking for housing in Linden knowing that the rental did not exist.

The woman’s image was captured by one of the victims at the Linden Public Library, 31 E. Henry Street, where they were negotiating a lease agreement for the house, which was located at 104 Cedar Avenue.

Anyone with information on this person is asked to contact Detective David Kother at 908-474-8556or email crimetips@lpdnj.org.
