Tried it very seriously a few years ago - given all the scamming that goes on in all aspects of life these days, it's massively difficult to get people to believe you're legit and to work with you.

Also, if they're that shady, I would question what else they're hiding or trying to scam you on

I've known others that have been scammed by lenders, taking their down payments and never to be seen again.

It was a scam and the home continued to be in foreclosure. 

Quit Claim Deeds can be a scam.

If they are attempting to run a scam on the service dog approach their fall back will be the emotion scam. 

I am not in the business of scamming people, but that seems like the greatest business model of all time.

My concern is the check would most likely bounce or be involved in some check kitting scam. 

Does anyone have any experience trying to get scam listings off of Craigslist?   

Otherwise, it's easy to miscalculate or fall for a scam.
