The guy posted an add on craiglist and said he has an apartment for rent. I contacted him and after several emails I decided to rent his apartment. Then he asked me to send him the deposit and first month rent fee upfront, which is 600 + 600 = 1200 dollars. I denied to send it in full. So he agreed to send just half, which is 600. I sent through western union. Then the next day he told me through email that his key and documents were held by the shipping agent and they require a insurance fee of 675 otherwise will not give them back. Then I realized that this is a scam. He used name Jacob Robin to receive the money. And the address he gave me was 596 P. Ocampo St, Malate Manila, Phillippines 1004. I don't know if this is useful. But please tack him down and get my money back! Please!!!

- Thank you for posting this complaint! I saw the same ad on Craigslist but in SF. It started sounding fishy, in Manila relocating his family, couldn't be there to let me see the apartment. I googled his name and VOILA! Certified scammer. Sorry you lost the money, hopefully you can recover it. I didn't send him money, but you saved me my time. Thank you again. This time his email is [email protected]
