My girlfriends and I jsut had the same thing happen to us, we were booked for a place in Chicago for 10 of us and he wanted a cashier's check to send to George Drake in Texas and didn't want to go through paypal but we had our doubts and so we said ony way we would book would be through paypal so at least w should be protected and covered and get the deposti back which was basically for the full amount be covered. The email address was consultantrental@ml1.net.  We haven't heard a thing from him after the deposit.  Total sam

It was Michael Fuicher for the Mission Beach/San Diego rental, and I fooloshly sent the $$ to the bank account in NJ that he suggested......he called me from a 940 number, but I don't have it on me now.

He also had some propoerties for list in New Orleans and Santa Barbara--I found out too late.

He changes his name recently to Mickey Leon with the same number as 940-238-2802. This time in Park City Utah.

OMG! I am SO glad I found this site! I have been searching and searching on this Fisher Brain guy. He has listed an apt in NOLA for rent and I knew it sounded too good to be true. I read the response he sent to you and it is VERBATIM to the one I received yesterday.

Remember people, go with your gut! It's usually telling you the truth!
