GREEN BAY, WI (WTAQ) – Green Bay police have arrested 2 people in connection with a recent Craigslist scam.
28-year-old Mitchell A. Terry and 20-year-old Katlyne M. Legare, both of Green Bay, allegedly met with the victims claiming to be managers for area properties, and collected cash for rent and security deposits. Police say no properties were ever for rent in these cases.
Police say the victims replied to ads on Craigslist for rental units on Western Avenue, Plymouth Lane and Baird Creek Lane, among other locations.
Investigators are looking into whether there are more victims who have not come forward.
Terry used the names “Lenny Bender,” “Larry Bender” and “Dale Bender” in some cases, police say.
Anyone with information is asked to call Det. David Steffens at (920) 448-3200 ext. 0253, or email davest@greenbaywi.gov.
No charges have been filed.
