Raise The Red Flag On Craigslist-Advertised Rentals Too Good To Be True
- Here's a word of warning for anyone looking to rent a house or apartment: some of the ads you see may be planted by scammers. The houses are real, but the rest is smoke and mirrors. As high as rent is getting around Seattle, when you see a nice place that's reasonable, you have to jump on it. Just make sure the person you're dealing with is really the landlord. It could be slick trick in the name of God.

- The imposters pose as missionaries or other devout Christians forced to transfer to West Africa. They say they had to leave on short notice and as a result, have to handle the rental themselves, long distance. They're looking for an honest tenant who they can trust to take care of their home.
