Kansas City couple have their million-dollar ranch listed on Zillow for just $10,200 for 'first-time buyers only' by scammers as hordes of prospective homeowners knock on their door

A couple are fending off househunters flocking to their door after seeing their $1.6 million house on sale for $10.200.

But Jamey and Lauren Bertram never put their five-bedroom 5,300sqft home in Kansas City on the market.

Instead, it was a brazen scam on property site Zillow that took them most of a week to fix, all while people were knocking on their door to have a look.

The scammer explained the crazy low place by making it sound like the owner was so rich they could afford o practically give it away for charity.

'Selling my home because my family and I own many houses across the U.S.,' the scammer wrote. 

'Once a year we sell one or a few of our homes to first time buyers for under $25,000. This is done to bless a family or individual that needs it, but also as a tax write off for us.'

The house was only available to first time buyers, it said, and strictly no realtors, lenders, investors, wholesalers, or lawyers need inquire.

Excluding this list of savvy property buyers was likely because it was essential to make the scam work.

Buyers were told to call 'Mandi' and then told to send $200 to the owner's mother through an online banking app - which, of course, would be refunded.

Jamey Bertram, senior vice president at architecture and engineering firm Burns & McDonnell, said the couple had no idea until Wednesday when friends asked if they were moving.

'We've been spending the last three days trying to unwind this person that has taken over my house online,' he told the Kansas City Star.

'I've had zero help from Zillow. They've become unresponsive… It's a hot mess.

'I'm kind of stuck here. People want to see the house. It's just a complete scam.'

The house was finally taken of Zillow over the weekend.
