Hello,
Since falling for a recent scam listing on CL a month ago I have been policing my local rental listings to try to stop this person from taking advantage of other people.
I again have found another similar ad that I have just flagged and contacted CL to take it down.
This person posts ads to rent homes far below market value posing himself as someone who has been stationed out of town.
They then ask for personal information as an application that they will choose the new tenant with.
They then ask for the first months rent and security deposit to be Wired to them in exchange for the keys that will be Fedexed to them.
They always list the ads as "Home in a Quiet Neighborhood"
This happens all over the country through craigslist but where they are dumb is always using the same phone numbers and listing titles
443-837-7252
