Ameriscores Rental Scam on Craiglist

I received the following e-mail via a posting on Craigslist. It is obviously an attempt to get a prospective renter to sign up at Ameriscores.com. Renters beware.

Hello,

Thank you for taking the time to contact us concerning our property.

We thought we had the Lease finalized last week to a family, however there were unforseen circumstances. You were the first person to message us about it since it was placed back for lease. It would only be fair to offer you the first chance at reserving the property.

Typically, I would require a 12 month lease, but, since we're having to relist the property I would also be ok with shorter terms. I am assuming that you"ll want to see the property before making a definite decision. I would just give you the address and let you drive by, however my husband is against blindly advertising an empty home online. I have heard many stories of empty rentals being burglarized. Understand the home has been up kept properly and had a good cleaning and a new refrigerator. Basic utilities are currently on, but we expect that you would get them transferred into your name relatively quick.

If you are interested in scheduling a time to tour the unit, go to the site below and print off the free copy of your report. Your score isn't necessarily important. I am simply being assured that there are no previous evictions or rental property related liens.

Here's the site: http://ameriscores.com/property04026

I'll be very accomodating as far as days go toproperty. Any day after 8a.m. is fine. Just let me know when you have everything printed and be sure to leave me a cell number to reach you at. I will call you to confirm a time and choose a location near the rental to meet.

Thank you for looking,

Carrie Springs

CraigsList/Credit Report Scammer

The people behind this blogging site, www.ameriscores.com are also behind multiple fake apartment/job listing sites on Craig's List...do not fall victim to this scam and NEVER follows links sent to you fromwhat you think are legitimate emails being generated from listing you find on Craig's List to get your credit reports...these are activities being generated by bad eggs just to get paid...none of it is real. Here is a sample email that I received after looking for an apartment in Philly (I myself should have know better).

This is Craig's List listing: http://philadelphia.craigslist.org/apa/1631383632.html...all of this is fake and they keep changing the credit report site that they point the link to so they do not get caught...

I'm sorry I wasn't able to get back to you sooner! Things have been so hectic for me these last couple of days!

The good news is that the rental is still available! We had an offer from the first person we showed it to, but now it appears that they are changing their mind, so we need to start showing it again as soon as possible. You were the second one to email me about it.

The property was just cleaned, and it's in great condition. We know a lot of prospective renters want to do a quick look of the property, but my husband doesn't want me to mass send out the address as a measure of safety. Last time we did that without verifying people, another vacant property was broken into and vandalized. We don't want that to happen again! I CAN tell you that it's a very special property, which would normally rent for quite a bit more than other comparable properties in the neighborhood.

For utilities, your electric, gas, water, sewer and trash will be transferred into your name upon occupying the property. You will be responsible for cable, internet, and phone, if you decide to have these services. Just to confirm, we DO allow pets at this property.

The rental term is 12-month lease, but can be switched into a 6-month lease if preferred. We just ask that you give us fair notice if you are moving out.

If you would like to set up an appointment, go to the link below and request the free copy of your rental / credit report. We use this company for all the properties we manage. Just fill out the form and indicate that you want the free credit report. The actual scores on the report aren't important to us; it's more of a formality to have it on file, to make sure you are who you say you are.

Get your report here: http://ameriscores.com/freereport/

Remember, we only need to see the page about the rental history. That will be all you will need to bring with you to the showing.
As far as getting together to see the property goes, I am available to show it any time from 10:00 am on, for the next couple of days. Let me know when you've printed out your credit report, and we will set up a time to do your walk-through.

Thank you once again for your interest!
