Fraudulent ad on Craigslist

March 13th, 2008, posted by Brandon

Last weekend I received numerous calls about our listing our 811 Buchanan St NW. Normally I’d be happy about the attention, but the callers were inquiring about the home for rent.

Come to find out, my listing—and photos—had been fraudulently posted on Craigslist as being for rent! Upon inquiring, you were asked to send your personal information to a woman in Nigeria. The ad was quickly removed by Craigslist. But I wonder how many people sent their information to this woman?

Just a reminder to be careful when sharing your personal information.
