An apartment in Sammamish was allegedly the lure for a Craiglist scam for which a Kirkland man has found himself in trouble with the law, again.

Paul Woodrow Bakovich, 37, was arrested twice in August of 2009 for a scam using houses that he does not own and a Craigslist add to lure unsuspecting would-be renters into giving him money.

He is again being investigated for the same crime by the King County Sherrif’s Office.

According to the Kirkland Reporter, Bakovich, who pled guilty last October to three counts of second-degree theft, has not yet been charged in the investigation, but investigators say he is using the same scam.
