I replied to two separate craigslist ads for the same townhouse in La Jolla, CA and got responses for both listings within 6 hours of each other. They listed the same address, but the responses came from two different emails and each email was supposedly from a different person.

Thanks for your interest regarding our House. The house is still
available for rent, we are renting this house to a responsible and
neat person or family who has the fear of God and treat the house as
his or her own.Well our house has been for sale with an agent before
my wife advices me to put it out for rent that’s why we put it out for
rent and it has been withdraw from the agent,I am saying this if at all
you find any sign in the house.
The main reason why the house is for rent is that I got transfer from
my place of work to West Africa to preach the gospel to the
unbeliever's and even reaching out good things to the orphanage
children, and I will be away for good 3 years or more that is the main
reason I had to take my family along with me, and we cant leave the
house for 3 good years, that’s why we really want good people that can
take very good care of the house so that we will be very happy when we
get back home and we will still be good family friends, so if you are
interested in taking good care of our house, then my family will be
ready in accepting you as our new tenant who will be fully in charge

house then you will be allowed to stay as long as you wish
