That way, if there are any damages, you can take a picture with the newspaper and “prove” that the damage was there when you moved in.
Just make sure you strip the meta data from the picture before you send in your evidence.
Why strip it when you can alter it to reflect any time and date? :D

That’s right, Lorraine!

This guy frauds
Close. This guy worked in bankruptcy and insolvency and has seen more half-arsed attempts at fraud by people who think they are smart then I want to remember.
Won’t work if the landlord is smart enough to do their own inspection before a new move in and document it
I had a landlord once who gave me an enormous folder of datestamped photos and made me sign a statement that they were a true and accurate record when I moved in.
Came in handy when I moved out and they tried to get me to pay for the crack in a window pane that was clearly visible in several of their own photos.
One of my previous one tried to charge me for cobwebs. It was a farm house.
Now I’ve heard it all. Cobwebs!!
Well you couldn’t have cleaned them otherwise you would have risked damaging the aesthetic.
Spiders work fast. They rebuild webs in a matter of hours. It’s not a realistic demand.
Though at the time the amount they wanted was not worth the grief so I just moved on. But minor deposit frauds are extremely common and almost always unpunished. Landlords have essentially nothing to lose by trying it, certainly not morals.

Mine tried to charge me for the expanding foam an exterminator put in to fix a mouse infestation caused by the landlord’s disregard for the building
Just hope the landlord has a lawyer who’s dumb as dirt.
