Thanks for posting joesher - I see this email address (southbeachcondo333) has been used to make a number of postings concerning cheap holiday rentals:
Example #1 This one says "Decatur Illinois"
Example #2 - Contains text copied from another site

If you have any emails from them, would you mind posting the contents here (make sure to remove your name or email address before posting), as this would help others avoid being scammed.

Hello,
I am reading all the posts and I am afraid that I have been scammed.
I have sent a deposit for a rental in Miami. I've made some research before to be sure it was not a scam but I have to say that they are very good. So I have wire transfered the amount.
Now, my question is, do you know other victims of these scammers and if there is something we can do to stop them?
I have lost $945

Their last email (I have asked them what are the conditions to cancel a reservation just to see their reaction)

We will like to know reason why you wanted to cancel your reservation, Is there any thing we have done to piss you off the booking or something.

We make your stay a comfy and low-stress vacation..

Hi,

So, I went to Miami as planned. And as expected, there was nobody waiting for us at the airport. Even if the 1500 Ocean Drive exist, I confirm that it was a scam.
I lost 700 euros and now I know that I have definitely lost my money. But it is important that these guys are stopped.
I don't know what to do... If some of you have an idea, I would be interested.
Thanks
