I was on Trulia.com and I saw a beautiful 3 br, 2 1/2 bath house for rent in a very nice neighborhood here in Houston, TX. It was priced at 550.00 a month. Naturally I contacted the listed poster of the property and this is the email I received:

Thankfully, being the paranoid, skeptical person I am, I researched further into this and came across this site and saw an email exactly like this one from a person in New York, and of course it was sent with a different email than the one that was sent to me. I clicked on the link they provided and it sent me to this weird online gaming site in Russian, so that was my 2nd red flag...the first flag was seeing her put APARTMENT and UNIT..and "PARKING SPACE" when the listing was a 2 story house in a neighborhood with a drive-way. Hmm anyways..I reported the scam to Trulia and hopefully they will remove the listing! Oh well back on the house hunt I go, but at least now I won't fall for this terrible fraudulent sob story again!
