well he's back at it again... This one was a single family cape cod in Brookfield, WI... all utilities included for only $525/month, yeah right... you cant even get an upper 2 br apartment in that neighborhood for less than $700. I knew the minute i saw it something had to be wrong with this ad. Craigslist pulled it down after only 2 days tho so they must be catching on to him.. what an a** hole. Still uses the same rental application and phone number (which was how i found this scam blog) but this time he adds a little note at the bottom of the email to try to sling people along a little longer without getting caught in the scam.. check out this slick sh**:
"TAKE NOTE: YOU CAN ONLY DRIVE BY AND SEE MY PLACE FROM THE OUTSIDE, BUT IF DRIVE BY THE HOME YOU MAY SEE A SIGN THERE, YOU HAVE NOTHING TO WORRY ABOUT IT BELONGS TO OUR PREVIOUS AGENT SO YOU HAVE ABSOLUTELY NOTHING TO WORRY ABOUT AND DON'T HAVE TO CALL THEM BECAUSE THEY TO NOT HAVE ACCESS TO THE HOME ANYMORE! IF YOU ARE INTERESTED IN RENTING GET THE APPLICATION FORM FILLED OUT AND SEND IT BACK TO ME YOU CAN ALSO CONTACT ME +2348028593562"
He also claimed that his name was RUTH, and now its the WIFE that is a "medical doctor" who works for the American Red Cross Lutheran Hospital Donor Center and was transferred to a branch in West Africa. So i guess hes trying to appeal to lesbians, doctors, and anyone with a good heart to help the needy. Dick
