According to Bright, the supposed landlord, Enoch Amankwah, called to meet him at North Kaneshie, where they first met so he could sign the rent agreement form, only to arrive there and be told it was a movie house instead of the landlord's office.

Bright proceeded to visit the apartment he had paid for and met the caretaker, who told him that the apartment was not for rent. All efforts to reach the landlord and agent he paid the apartment's rent to have been in vain.
