Craigslist Housing Scam Offers Houses at Too-Good-to-Be-True Rental Rates

This particular Craigslist housing scam offers a house for a rent that is so low that it is too good to be true – you just have to first fill out a request for a “free credit report” at cbireport.com. The response to inquiries is canned and, in fact, has been around for a while – in our region the scam was listed under the heading “$850 / 3br – Beautiful 3 Bed, 2 Bath House”. Our sample came from “gipepazalih@hotmail.com”, but it has come from other email addresses too.
