Description

It all started when a nice gentleman called my office and asked me if the long-term rental advertised on Craigslist was legitimate or not. I explained to the gentleman I had no idea what he was talking about and that my company did not advertise anything on Craigslist. He went on to tell me what the ad said and even showed me where I could view it for myself.
When I went on Craigslist, I was shocked to find that a rental house my wife and I owned was being advertised on Craigslist. A scam artist was offering the house for $1,000 a month (we rent the house out for $2,800 a month). He wrote in the article that he received a really nice promotion at work, and he was not going to be back in Orlando for a couple years. He wanted his good fortune of landing such a good promotion to help another family out… what a joke.
