Shirley Barron and her daughter Dashir Thomas, who lives at one of the addresses, said a man from one of the posters had rented a room at their home but left in September.
Thomas was confused as to why someone would go to the effort to print the posters but not visit the property first.
"No one came here to check he was living here."
Thomas said the family were first informed about the posters by a friend before Christmas. The friend had been removing the posters each time they appeared and the family hadn't had any problems so far.
Barron said she hadn't experienced anything like this before in her 30 years of living in the area and wasn't sure what to do about it.
"We didn't know what to do, whether to let sleeping dogs lie and just see if it will blow over," she said.
"Nobody has even said anything about it, like 'your name's on the street and the posters on the street', or anything about it."
A woman at the second address told the Herald the man on the other poster used to live there but doesn't any more. She didn't want to comment any further because her daughter was contacting the police about the posters.
Images of one of the posters were uploaded to social media yesterday but have since been deleted.
Police were unable to comment on the posters when contacted by the Herald yesterday.
