Yeah these scumbags constantly text you and send you fake handwritten letters about your house to try to entice you to talk to them. My partner and I were getting A LOT more of them when interest rates were low. She took a "course" once on flipping houses when she was younger and honestly the whole idea of flipping is scumbag central, with "wholesalers" and "lead generators" whose whole business model is to convince people to sell for less than they could get in a proper real-estate transaction.

Basically the course boiled down to "find some rich relatives to con for investment money" and "look around your neighborhood for old people or people who just lost their job and give them lowball offers."
