The agency says that several home rental companies offered to photograph, list and rent homes to football fans, but it alleges that Super Week Lodging and Major Event Rentalz took money up front without providing services or refunds.
The lawsuits filed Thursday claim Super Week Lodging took payments of $850 to $1,495 totaling nearly $20,000, and Major Event Rentalz took payments of $450 to $5,544 totaling nearly $9,000. The state is seeking full refunds for 21 consumers, civil penalties and attorney fees.
Neither company immediately returned phone calls seeking comment.
