I got the same lisa.roommatenext.com text message from a roommate ad listed on Craigslist in San Francisco, should have known, it was a room in sf with parking spot for $850, but so glad I came across this page because I was tempted to follow the link. Instead of "lisa" mine was customized, kinda, they spelled Rebecca wrong:
"Room still open.pls sign up here http//rabecca.roommatenext.com & lemme know for da next step.Just prove u r not Marketer/Robot."
I responded to an ad in the D.C. Craigslist and got a response with the exact same wording! Lisa.roommate is apparently a roommate-finding service, so gender might not matter since Lisa's just the name of the site, but, exact same wording? Clearly not legit! (I mean the exact message you have in quotes. Also, scamadvisor.com rated Lisa.roomates as only 51% trustworthy, saying it's owned by someone in Bangladesh and is relatively new.) Thanks for posting your alert! (The phone no. was different: 415 234-7803.)
Continuing my reply: The original ad offered a sublet in a great D.C. neighborhood that's normally quite expensive, and included use of their bicycle and - cat?! Guess I'll keep looking.
Same with me except this one is jessica.roommatesnext.com on craigslist for Humbolt County, CA
Same exact txt message. Phone is was from is 1-327-363-0316.
It's hard enough navigating share rentals without having to waste time with this crap!
