Exactly..... one of the biggest scams in history.

Hey Matthew,If you're trying to find contractors through Craigslist, I'd make sure to screen them THOROUGHLY before proceeding.You might want to take a look at this article just so you don't end up getting scammed.

This looks definitely like a credit scam

Be careful of scam websites. 3.

The people I'm telling this too are generally newbies who are not aware how prevalent the guru scam is.

Unless you are basing your opinion on the recent election and Obama's anti free market/RE policies, that a whole different story.But then again, you have 100 times the knowledge and experience I do, so I'd love to hear your opinion.

These are the anti-investor type properties.

And if they're really anti-landlord in general, I would definitely look to other similarly priced markets that aren't anti-landlord.

Its a scam that has nothing to do with slumlords, though this is what they're saying to gain traction.

@Cherie O'Riordan yeah we figured it was a scam.
