I almost rented a place till I decided to Google her and her request for funds on Moneygram. Suspicious! Are all the AirB&B's suspicious?

I received the exact same message tonight. :(

I, like others have bitten on this but unsure of how to report this. I did do the moneygram thing? Just dont have a good feeling about this.

I got this exact same email from Debby Wale worded the exact same way. She has a listing in Oahu
http://honolulu.craigslist.org/oah/sub/4278041735.html

She wanted payment via Money Gram. Suck eggs Debby/Sarah. I have reported you to the FBI!

She is now going by name of Deborah Jones. We almost got scammed. She gave us the address of the Burton Way Luxurious appartments in Beverly Hills. Good thing I checked the phone number! Thanks!

ALMOST got scammed as well! Wow, something just told me to google this so called "Hollyward Suite Vacation Rental"....I was looking for a place in San Diego. She is now going by Sarah Thompson! Good luck out there!

Thanks for your interest in my place.

BEWARE OF SARAH THOMPSON SHE LIST HER PROPERTY AS
$50 / 1br - Lovely Apartment (Mission Beach) -
This property recently underwent a major renovation with professional designers and was featured in San Diego Magazine's Design section! The living room and kitchen overlook the beach. The dining room sits just back of the living room. The dining table is 60'' round, which accommodates 8, but also has 2-15'' leaves for even larger gatherings. This is not a typical rental with sparse decorations; this is a lovely home. But as beautiful as the decor is, it is only matched by the views of the water below.

she has several listing in san diego and is now going by the name sarah thompson Her listings are for $50 a night if you google the address they do not exist as rental property BEWARE

What did you see about Debby Wale you did not like???

I almost sent Debby Wale money for a rental in the amount of $550.00. Thank the Lord that I decided to take a look online and see what was out there. Thank you all for the warning. I asked her to call me and she kept sending me texts.
