We’ve been getting a few google search results and more recent comments from this post we did a while ago about buyers out there looking to scam real estate agents. It sounds like a guy by the name of Michael Lecht is giving it a go again, so agents beware.
A couple recent comments:
Regarding Michael Lecht:
He contacted me 6+ years ago and wasted my time. He is super creepy and I fired him when an alert came out about a buyer with his name that was using multiple agents (all women). I guess he has a bad memory because I just received a voice message from him from my latest Real Estate Times ad.

Michael Lecht contacted me twice this week. I thought he seemed suspicious, so I decided to Google his name and found this site. He claimed to have found my ad in the real estate times, which I haven’t advertised in recently. Thanks for having this info up, very helpful!

Let’s hope there are no more incidents. It goes without saying, this guy could very well use a couple different names, so just be careful.
