A New York tenant says she unknowingly became part of an alleged rent scam after discovering that a stranger’s name appeared on her apartment records. She had lived in the rent-stabilized apartment for about three years, paid rent through her landlord’s management company and had an official lease. The discrepancy only came to light when her DHCR records surfaced during a housing court proceeding.
