Legal Question in Real Estate Law in Pennsylvania

I put a deposit down to hold an apartment. In the meantime I found out information that the landlord had been lying about. When I put the deposit down I never signed any contract or lease. Now that I have decided not to move in they are not giving the deposit back. What can I do about this?

It sounds loke you may have to sue them in small claims court where the defendant lessor lives or where the property is located. This would be at the local magistrates's office having jurisdiction over the matter.
