This person is posing as a leasing agent trying to rent furnished apartments in Seattle, WA. He could very well be posting other ads in other cities via craigslist. I inquired and he sent me a rental application form which I filled and submitted and afterwards he gave me the account information of Kevin Rosenbaum who's bank account (5698162) I would need to place a holding deposit in summing around 4,000$. Here I became hesitant and started doing more research finally asking him to send me the exact pictures of what the apartment looked like. He complied and Upon further investigation I found the pictures were actually from an apartment complex in Houston Texas.

I emailed him and told him I was contacting the authorities and advised him to remove the ad. I am posting the information here because I believe he is posting these ads in other cities.

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.
