I am reporting the following scammers and their gmail addressees; they both contacted me via craigslist and have been reported to them as well. I highlighted the addresses from whence they came and pasted the verbatim response from them... they are almost identical in nature. The second one actually came first; it was my very first response to the posting I have for a renter. I did respond to the person without knowing (she) is a scammer; I had given my home land line telephone and requested that (she) telephone me so that we could communicate better, but I never gave out my actual street address or reiterated actual costs involved since I really expected a telephone call from this person. At the time and did not have any idea it was not legitimate. It was after discovering this site that I came to understand the types of scammers out there. I am again so very thankful for the existence of this site.
