These guys post on on-line sites like CL, placebee, padmapper, clasivox etc. They clam to help you find rentals for an upfront fee of $60.00. These people are not licensed Realestate brokers they are scam artists. The properties that they post on the sites listed above, are copied ( stolen) from other legit adds on the internet. I loved this property: http://sandiego.craigslist.org/csd/apa/4403891715.html and called the number listed on the add. I knew right away that it was a scam so I spent the next few hours researching, and managed to track down the rightful managers of this property. I was able to do this by using the information in the add. I googled the phone number on the add, used the info to give me an area to search for the property. Then I went onto Google Earth and spent some time looking for the property. Once I found it, I was able to work out the exact address. I then googled that address and found the listing posted by the REAL managment. I then called them with all of the info that I had and they confirmed that rentalsweets.com (310-314-4964) had indeed stollen their photos and used their same listing without their permission. :shock:
