I've got one of those African scam artists all over my inbox...is it still fun to fuck with them? I'm not feeling creative enough right now. Help me write responses and I'll post the results.
I was browsing craigslist for apartments and saw an ad for a cute, small, furnished 1 bedroom. There were pictures, but they were advertising it, furnished, for $600 including utilities. Obviously too good to be true but since it had no location listed I figured it was someone in the Sunshine Coast or Chilliwack or something who had forgotten to put the location in the ad.
I sent the following email:
" You didn't list in your ad where it was located....
Jessica "
And laughed my ass off when I got this in return:
" Thanks for your email and it is my gladness hearing from you.I am Rev Daniel i owner the house you are making enquiry about, actually we resided in the house with my family,such as my wife and my only daugther before and presently we had packed due to my transfer from my working place and now situated in the Georgia,USA and presently my house is still available for rent for 600 per month including the utilities like hydro,washer and security,it is furnished.
