reply to a post on craigslist of a house for rent in southchase beacontree way. Stated that the was an engineer on a research trip asking for 700 monthly and 750 down/
I was looking for a house for rent in Craigslist and saw this hous in 12311 Beacontree Way Orlando for $700 and I thought this is a very good deal. I sent a message to them asking for information and told them that I wanted to see the house before take any decision and of course talk with my housband about that, the kept insisting to fill out a bogus contract that he sent me. Let me tell you something was in love with the house, but there was something fishi there because when I went there I saw a realtor company sign with a phone number and I though he told me in the text message that he got to withdraw the house from the realtor company so I call the company to verify the information and they told me that it was an scam. So please always verify before take any decision and if the other part is making pressure on you is better say no.
I got a call from an unknown person asking if I am really the owner of a certain house I own. The caller said they found a house on craigslist (mine) that was renting for $700. They found it too good to be true and researched on the house trying to find who its actual owner was, from the public records, and got hold of my home phone number. After talking we realized that the caller was genuine but the ad was fake, they had copied our description that my realtor gave along with everything else. The only thing he had changed was the price. He had also given the caller the same explanation that he was on a project trip and had taken the keys with him. He had asked the caller for $700 because then he would send them the keys. Thankfully the caller had identified this FRAUD and had given me a call or else some innocent person would have lost $700.
