Seems a little fishy so checked for similar scams and found this about craigslist and National Credit Report:


The scams appear on Craigslist and other classified websites offering an apartment for rent or a job posting and consumers respond to the listings via email. Once the consumer's inquiry is received, the consumer then becomes engaged in what they believe is legitimate communication between a potential employer or property manager. The alleged employer or property manager will include a link to a free credit report website, asking the consumer to go to the site to get their free report. The consumer is then instructed to email their credit report and/or credit score to the potential employer or property manager so they can "verify their employment or housing history" and proceed with the job or apartment application process.




I am doing this because I am looking for work and trying to move my life forward. Sadly, this was a hopeful job prospect and a $9/hr pay cut from what was making. Now I am spending this time to hopefully help some people avoid credit card fraud and/or identity theft. I believe this needs to be brought to justice. I sincerly hope it helps and holds the criminals accountable for there actions.
