Wrong addresses in old amendments for a lease. Is it a scam or an honest mistake?
I am looking over a lease for due-diligence and there are two different amendments that list a different address for the property.

The amendments have been superseded so they are irrelevant, but the curious thing is that the leasee signed documents with the incorrect address.

The wrong address doesn't really exist but maps to a field about 4.5 miles away from the property.

What I was wondering:  Is this just a stupid mistake or was their some scam going on?  Everything else seems to be correct.
