The NYPD is continuing their search for a man they say is pretending to be one of their own to pull off a real estate scam in Bronx.
Police say Anthony Gonzalez, 48, impersonated a detective in February and convinced a couple to rent an apartment from a building in the Kingsbridge section of Bronx.
The couple gave him a $2,300 security deposit, and he handed them fake keys.
Neighbors told NBC New York they were alarmed by the scam.
Gonzalez is described as having a scar on the left side of his face, and tattoos on both arms and his chest.
Anyone with information on the case should contact the Crime Stoppers hotline at 1-800-577-TIPS, or text CRIMES and then enter TIP577, or visit NYPDCrimestoppers.com.
All calls are strictly confidential.
