IWell. I'm stupid. Well here's my story. I was renting a new house(so I thought). I thought I was getting a good deal and so I went on and he said he moved to nj and would be back in a year so I thought ok that's fine. So he wanted me to use paypal so he sent me a link to paypal. It made me log in. I sent him 800$ for the deposit and well sure enough the next day all my money I had in there was gone. I had about 2300$ on paypal. He yook it all:(. My account is now frozen. But on top of all that he sent what looked to be a legit lease agreement so I signed it and sent it to him so now he has my signature as well. I hate scammers. Minneapolis fbi is working on it as well as newark fbi because I guess he scammed multiple people with the house. So far they know what city he was last in so that good I guess? Like why do people have to be so evil.
Edit- don't buy/rent a house from a craigslist ad.

-Batista wrote Dont meant to be stupid in this time of sadnessbecause I went to the house and actually got a tour of it from the housing company. But the guy who scammed me acted like the owner and was using the owners name and he knew everything about it. He told me not yo worry about the for rent sign and for sale sign becauze they should be taking them down. And he said that they where screwing him over by charging to much and pocketing the extra. So he was just gonna rent it out himself. So that why. And he was suppose to send the keys.
