PS let me share with you an unrelated personal story that may save you from being taken advantage of, particularly with classified ad type listing sites.

I was looking for an apartment in Nashville (yes I dabble in music) On this particular day, I found two or three listings for house rentals. These particular homes were available for rent in Juliette.

It went like this: the scammer created duplicate listings on CL and showed a price over 50% below the market price per month and directed me to only contact the landlord by phone. When I called it told me that the call was forwarding to Google's phone call app. About 20 minutes later, I received a text asking if I called about a rental property. The person set up a showing and I drove out there. About the time I got there. A Delaware number asked to provide an email address. I knew it was a scam at this point, and refused to open the email they composed and sent to me. The email contained a link which supposedly contained the key code for the front door. I believe that if I had clicked the link, a bot or cookie or something would have infected my computer. The old saying "if it looks too good to be true - it probably is" applies here.
