I had my timeshare in Reno advertised for rent on Craigslist. I received an e-mail (through Craigslist) from a Dr. Sandy Powell who claimed to be interested in renting it. I confirmed (by e-mail) the dates and amount and she offered to send a company\'s cashiers check. I asked for a copy of her (and her husband\'s) identification -- passport or drivers\' license as she had provided no phone number. I was suspicious of \"Dr. Sandy\" due to the fact that the grammar was not consistent with what I expected from a person with a doctorate degree living in Toronto. I decided to check scams and sure enough found 2 similar to mine. I have not heard back from her yet but I expect this is the same scam where they send a fraudulent check.
Fraud perpetrator -- Dr. Sandy Powell, 200 Elizabeth Street, Toronto, Ontario M5G 2C4

Since you’re here …
we have a small favour to ask. More people are visting Scamdex and Scamalot than ever but advertising revenues are falling fast and we have no 'product' to sell. And unlike many informational websites, we haven’t put up a paywall or membership barrier – we want to keep our site as open as we can. So you can see why we need to ask for your help. Scamdex/Scamalot websites takes a lot of time, money and hard work to keep running. We do this because we hate to see our fellow humans getting scammed out of their hard-earned money by low-lives.
