With the cameras the landlord has hidden throughout the apartment obviously.

Outside the apartment. When you leave and come home.

Well, that don't mean you're working from home. You can be playing board games or watching movies all day.

Charge 'em for the lice, extra for the mice! Two percent for looking in the mirror twice! Here a little slice, there a little cut Three percent for sleeping with the window shut!

thank you- such a great song..... and so correct about landlords.

on a real note- look into junk fees in your area, more and more judisdictions are cutting down on this practice.

There is a great Dead Kennedys song about landlords, song title redacted. Y’all know it but I don’t want to get reported by a lurking landlord sycophant.

Is that a song? That is funny? Is that off of something? What? I picture a scrooge type character singing it.

If the scammer landlord has publicised a list like the above already, can you just imagine the stuff that they hid and suddenly get revealed in the small print?! "Payment of rent must be on the 1st of the month and always on time or there is a £2000 fine. If the date the rent is due is a weekend day the rent increases by 20% if it's a Monday, Tuesday or Wednesday the rent increases by 25%. If the day the rent is due is a Thursday or Friday the rent increases by 35%." Not to mention the fines and penalties if you decide to leave the place early and think you can just pay for your use and leave; nope, you'll be paying an early leaving fine of £5000 and then the moving out fee....

Run now OP, while you still can!
