I mostly read about squatters in Spanish holiday homes and in Germany when people just refuse to pay rent.

Apparently it is a very long process to get those people evicted.

There is also another scam where people agree to buy a home, the sign a contract, ask for your key to be able to unload some furniture early and that's it. Once they have the key, they can live there without paying. Getting them out of there then requires waiting for courts to do their work. I only found a video about it in German unfortunately:
