Traveling professional short-term housing

I've been contacted (through Zillow) by three individuals claiming to be with an independent company offering short-term residence to traveling nurses, professionals and interns. Has anyone heard of this approach being a scam? I ask because I was unable to find no online presence for the last contact I received. Just curious...thanks in advance! :)

    I've had legitimate companies contact me from via Zillow -  I always ask for the name of the company, phone number and email right off the bat and then usually tell the I will call them back after I check my calendar.     I haven't had any scams, but you never know - I'd take measure to protect yoursefl.
