Yet another Scammer on Craigslist... response and "proof of ownership" are laughable. A poorly photoshopped passport photo from "Ennis Cruz" who looks 50 and birthdate says 30. Also has ownership for an apartment in Kings County Washington DC - which Seattle is in Washington, not Washington DC. Any easy fake to spot, but wanted to relay anyway!
