Craigslist Scams

Posted By: Dr. Frugal in Frugality on 02/11/2008 at 06:22:17

I read in the NY Post an article targeting renters where you find a ridiculously good deal posted by someone who needs to get out of town quickly because of their job. Although I consider myself pretty savvy when it comes to the internet, and specifically when using Craigslist, there might actually be a chance I'd fall for that one. I have been looking for a new place to live and frankly it's hard not to look past the "too good to be true" deals. Because they really do happen you can't just look past them until advertisements that offer more obvious scams. Anyway, keep an eye out if you're house-hunting on Craigslist.
