Evicted tenant trying to "sneak" back into renting my house again

I live in NC, have one house that I rent, my (now former PM) had to evict the tenant which has cost me over $3k in repairs and 3 months lost rent, so far.  Anyway, a neighbor just called to tell me that the tenant that destroyed my house and I just evicted is trying to stealthily "re-rent" my property using someone else.  What can I do to prevent the "bad" tenant from getting back into my house using someone else's name, etc.  I am sure the new applicants will have great references, credit, income, etc. and I will not be able to tell if they are a front or if they are real.  As far as I know, once they are in my house, I can't get them out without evicting them, which takes at least 2 months, giving them plenty of time to destroy my home again.  I informed my new property manager about this, but if they really want to get in and have enough people that will hide their associations, what can I do? Any advice would be appreciated.  I just have no words to describe the deception that people will use to get what they want.
