An NHS nurse was horrified to discover his new home was actually someone else's Airbnb rented by a fraudster 'landlord' just days before he moved in.
Ben Echianu, 43, was desperate to find a property big enough for his three children to stay over after breaking up with his partner.
After spotting a Gumtree ad for the three-bedroom property for £750 per month in central Manchester, Mr Echianu got in touch with a woman claiming to be called Amy.
Footage taken by Mr Echianu shows him viewing the house on June 19 with Amy who claimed to own it.
Mr Echianu said he could pay the £2,000 deposit within four days of the first viewing and was then told his application had been accepted the next morning.
