Craigslist is a centralized network of online communities, featuring free, online classified advertisements. These posts are not inspected or checked before they are posted. It is very important to exercise caution when renting apartments on Craigslist.
Never, under any circumstances, wire money at the request of any prospective 鈥渓andlord鈥 via Western Union, MoneyGram, or any other wire service. Even if they tell you to wire the funds to a friend or relative鈥檚 name 鈥渢o be safe,鈥 this will be a scam. Never send a scan of your passport or other ID. Thieves will use your identity to scam others.
Be suspicious if the deal sounds too good to be true. Scammers will often list a rental for a very low price to lure in victims. Find out how comparable listings are priced, and if the rental comes in suspiciously low, walk away.
