Notes:
I found a too good to be true rental ad on Craigslist. The add was vague on the location of the rental, so I emailed them for more information and rental terms. I received a well written reply that did not directly answer my questions. Before sending another email back, I googled the email address and found this site. I don't think my email account was harvested and I didn't send anymore info or tried the credit check site. I thought I should help warn people away just in case....
