Yeah just got another email with the same offer but a different name. Lol like the same words and misspelled words exactly? I was like let me guess you cannot meet in person because you relocated to another state for work with your family and you'll be gone for 6 years? Lol

Yeah, def a scam. Especially if the property is listed on other, reputable sites for more $$. One call to the listing agent of the site and you can find out, real fast.

Its not uncommon around my area for scammers to 'rent' out properties that are already for rent- just to get deposit $$.

It's a scam. I got the same, if not extremely similar, email once from someone a while back.

Scam

Anyone who isn't willing to meet with you personally or have a representative for them isn't worth renting from. Is that price too good to be true? Do people usually list the deposits like that in your area? Is he even willing to skype or FaceTime with you at the minimum? Those would be just some of the questions I'd ask myself.

That kitchen is from a 5 bedroom house in Sacramento. :) Check out the forth image in this link ссылка So definitely a scam.

Alt12 Mod.

Yeah I'm too broke to gamble an opportunity like this. Lol

I'm glad you caught onto this bs. ??

SCAM

Scam 100%

Girllllllll it's a scam ?

Yah. Scam.

When it sounds too good to b true, it usually always is.

s*** like this makes me happy that in order to rent a unit/house or whatever here you have to physically go see it inside and out with the real estate or owner. The rule s*** s me because if moving interstate it makes it hard BUT at least you know the place is legit!

I know right!? It's all old people lol.

Lol! I had my ds at home but my midwife told me it's really nice there! Kind of surprising since the entire city is full of people past child bearing age ?

Actually, if you're flexible on the area, the last apartment I lived in on 83rd/ Peoria was a similar price and we really liked living there. We would have renewed the lease had we not gotten a really good rate on our current home. I know it's a good 10 min outside sun City though

@army I had my boy 2 months ago at banner del Webb lol I loved it there!!!

Haha hayyyy ??

Sun City? Well hello, neighbor :)

I think it screamed SCAM when it said, "Note: if you find the apartment listed on another site, don't be bother by that.."

Like really lol only a scammer would say that. Trying to seem real and the other one is supposedly not real. Get out of here

Also I called him out on the fact that to live in sun city, Az there has to be someone 55+ living in the home. And no one under the age of 19 may live there but can visit up to 90 days. I'm like so how did you and your family live there fool?

Its definitely a scam, as soon as I read the " will be away for 6 years or more" yeeaaahh right.lol

My Brother in law once saw a house listed for $700 for a 3bed and 2ba and said that a relative of his died and he had to go to the funeral and he was gonna be out of the country for so and so many months and my BIL was really buying into it until his sister and I said it was a scam, no landlord will rent their place just like that.

Especially a 3 bedroom house for 700dls lol we live in the Los Angeles area so rent here is sky high, u end up paying almost 1300 just for a one bedroom apt! And its not so nice looking.

Yeah he said I have to pay a 100% refundable deposit and he'll ship the keys to me to go see the inside. ?

Girl don't feel bad about it. It's obviously not real if all he will let you do is drive past. I'm glad you put him in his place. Just move on and find another place. At least you didn't get sucked in to paying him

Well because of the stress I am under I am a walking time bomb. I just shamed him for trying to scam a struggling family with a newborn and toddler. I will however feel really really bad if this miraculously is real. But I doubt it.

This to me is 100% a scam. Walk away.

Thats too beautiful for $700 in my opinion. If he ask to wire the money it's definitely a scam.

This happens ALL THE TIME. It could be a real place that is actually for sale but scammers say it is for rent and take the money.

I work in RE and people have been scammed to the point where they put up deposit, first/last month rent and physically bring their items to move in and the key they were given was a fake.

And the money is gone.

Never rent sight unseen!

Ask them could you do a walk through? If they have a problem with that then most def a scam.

He did say I could drive by the property. But like I said it's an address to an apartment complex. And this kitchen ain't no apartment kitchen. Lol

I asked him again to call me and how will we pay him.

His response again was "text me your line so I can will text you thanks"

Wtf how stupid do you think I am!?

Right I've also asked several times how he wants us to pay him being out of state (depending on his answer I would know if it's a scam) and he has not acknowledged the question. Also I asked to be able to talk on the phone and he said sent me your line so I can text you. (Also a red flag if they refuse to talk over the phone. Scammers willl only text/email)

I would NEVER rent an apartment without seeing it or an identical unit in the same complex first

The picture screams scam. Don't do it! That is clearly a backyard.
