Several prospective Downtown renters have confirmed that their identities have been stolen by Craigslist fraudsters who continue to run a successful Craigslist rental fraud scheme nearly unimpeded.
With the help of Craigslist, anonymous phone numbers, anonymous fake rental application websites, and cleverly ripped-off lease listings copied from real trusted real estate agents, the fraudsters continue to steal and sell identities from those most desperate to rent a nice loft in Downtown for a bargain rate. The demand is huge for affordable Downtown lofts, so the fraudsters have no problem luring many victims.
Here is the latest Craigslist scam (when you suspect fraud, please click Prohibited so that it will be removed):
