I received a few phone calls and emails from several folks over the weekend. The responses varied from concerned to outright excited about a posting they had found on Craigslist. It seems there was a great home in Kent listed for rent at the low low price of $1,200.00 per month. The poster of this advertisement claimed they were on a religious mission in Africa right now and were hoping to lease their home out via the Internet.
Now some people might be a bit suspicious, but only $1200 a month for a great home in a great location right next to lake Meridian? What a deal! NOT!
The people that contacted me over the weekend were smart enough to do a google search of the address and find that it was actually one of my listings for sale. Some were calling and emailing me in hopes that the scam was true, others to warn me of the posting.
Unfortunately, there isn't much I can do about it but ask you to flag the post and get it pulled off the site.
If you'd be so kind as to follow the link I'd really appreciate your help.

If you have a better solution to the problem I'd love to hear it.
