******RENTALVERIFIED.COM**************

Just as I have read about other people who browsed through Craigslist and found the perfect deal that mysticlly doesn't have a phone number to call or the address of the property they are listing once you inquire about the property by writing to the person who posted the add they respond back telling you that in order to find out any further informaiton you need to go online and purchase a background report through RentalVerified.com. It will give you a like to the website that actually exists but based on the link they send you it somehow conected to the person who sent you the email and I assume they are getting a cut of the $29.99 or $39.99 dollar fee's you pay. This is not the way it should be. A background report should be ordered ONLY IF you check out the property and you decide that this is where you want to live and where you want your children to go to school.

  The reason why this is a rip off is because there is no actual house. Getting you to order the report puts a paycheck in their pocket and that's it! There isn't even a report! There is no sample report to look at there is nothing to the website except to order and to put your credit card and personal information and that is all. When you look up the website under the Whois search whoever owns it has paid for it to be private so that no one can contact them because it is a ripoff and they know it. If they were not a ripoff they wouldn't try to hide who it is from. Also when you go through the menu and when you go to put your credit card informaiton it flat out tells you what will show up on your credit card as whom you ordered it from will be a bunch of 00000xxxsss000 meaning they are not going to tell you it is related to the website.

  Also when you click on the link it will first appear as a redirect link that looks like this 

(   http://redirect194.com/n11379471  )   it will then automatically take you to this address------>  

(    https://rentalverified.com/pricing?i=18653    ).   Once you place your order the person connected to the link is getting the money you just spent on a useless report that you'll never recieve.  

  Here is the email I recieved back from the woman or person who placed the add. Notice it looks identical to the letters other people have recieved all around the country.

Dear K???,
 
First off, thank you so much for considering my home. The closets are big, the bedrooms are comfortable, and the windows let in alot of natural light.
 
This 3 bedrooms 3.5 baths home has not had any prior pets and accepts pets. It is free of smells or stains. We do not have any breed restrictions and we do not charge a fee or require a deposit.
 
Should your pet cause damage to the home, you're responsible for the needed repairs.
 
To lease our home we require the following:
 
1. Valid Driver's License or Picture ID
2. Rental Agreement (month to month, 6 months, or 1 year)
3. First months rent
4. Background check for each applicant
 
Background checks can be completed online using Rental Verified: link.
 
If you have a criminal record or less than perfect tenant history, no worries, I'm willing to work something out.
 
There are numerous more reasons to tour the home. It is neatly kept and the kitchen will make you feel right at home. Includes a full-sized washer and dryer along with being located in a great community.
 
I will bring the rental agreement with me to the walk thru. I also require background checks to be completed by all my applicants.
 
Once you've completed your background check and are ready to setup a walk thru, let me know. It's in a .pdf file and you can print it and bring to the showing or email it to me.
 
I would like to be able to speak with you around your busy schedule. What's the best number to contact you at?
 
I will be available tomorrow, Friday, and my availability can change daily. Can you think of a time that might work the best for you}?
 
Thanks again, I hope to end your search and make this your new home.
 
Sincerely,
 
susan
