Legal Question in Landlord & Tenant Law in Pennsylvania

If a tenant changes her bank account information and doesn't pay rent and skips out of the contract is there anyway that the landlord can track the tennant? And if the tenant doesn't have a social secuirty number and if the tenant changes her cell phone number is there anyway the landlord can track her? The tennant has no references either. And also the tenant has no social secuirty card.

You rented to someone with no social security number and no re fences? And you're surprised they skipped out on you. Either you're renting an apartment so bad that no one with a ssn or references or you're a nine to bright landlord. Also, one who may have harbored an undocumented alien that isn't going to make you a sympathetic victim. Besides how did someone without a SSN get a bank account?

That said even if you find the missing tenant doesn't sound like they have anyway of satisfying any judgment. Chalk this up as tuition to the school of hard knocks. Next time no ssn no refence you don't rental that way you'll get your rent and yo'll stay out of trouble.
