Craigslist Scammer
If you are looking for a home for rent or to buy on craigslist, be careful Ann Arbor buyers. Today I received “another” call from a person who saw my listing for rent on the Huron River via Craigslist.
Only it is NOT my ad, but some spammer.
I went to Craigslist flagged it as prohibited.
The second call I got on renting the house was from someone that works at Bank of America. She said she had been communicating with the “supposed seller.”
I told her 1370 Huron River Dr was both for sale and rent, but at $3500.00 a month NOT $1000.00
So I emailed the scammer and the idiot has been emailing me back.
Here is the dialog:
Me: This is MY listing, I have had 2 people call me, (thankfully) about renting1370 Huron River Dr. at 1000.00 a month. I have reported you to craigslist.
You are a scammer trying to get money from people and this makes me sick.
Thankfully 2 people called me, but how much money have you scammed off the innocent the last 4 days?

Her: Who are you?
Me: You see my contact information below, you are scamming innocent people, how much money have you made today, off defrauding people?
Her: OH how are you….how is the condition of my home
Me: It is NOT your home, Paula or whoever you are.
Her: why,give me prove that you own it.
At this point I am finished communicating with her. Most of the time I report the scammers, send an email and it is done.
