Sometimes the simplest things are overlooked. Sorry you don't feel it's worth anything.

If you DON'T have all that info from her application to help track her down, SHAME ON YOU! for renting to her in the first place!
Stand up for your rights as a landlord.

It isn't likely you will ever find them. If you do, you likely will never collect. People like that rarely have steady jobs to garnish or bank accounts to seize. Perhaps contact a collection agency....

Any chance you know an email address she used, or a forum posting name, etc? Try...

It's real rare, and only once. So people like this don't file lawsuits, because they are too busy running away from life.
Better than the old days, when the landlord would just send the boys over...

Hopefully you have a bunch of info from their application. Use it.
I suppose if they were using an alias, then you'd be screwed. But at least you could tell people you rented to a secret agent.

What about agreeing to take much less than owed to avoid various hassles... When you find her, what about trying to negotiate a payment of 1/2 to avoid placing it on her credit report?
