| [email protected] Jessica Date rental property, fake credit report site Harrisonburg, Virginia |
| 16th of Apr, 2011 by User958031 |
Apartment Rental Credit Check Scam Found the scam on this site Fakelist.org when the realtor did not return my request for her phone number. ThePowersThatBe
Posted: 08.04.2011, 22:41 "This is a simple scam done through affiliate marketing. The scammer will advertise properties for rent all over the nation through popular free websites. The advertisements will look like any other rental property ad, vague and without an address. As people respond to the ad, the scammer will email them a rental application (fake), a request for a credit report (an affiliate link in the email), and a request to set up a time and day to do a walk-through of the property. The scam is the affiliate link to the "free credit report." After you sign up with the credit report company, you will be told by the prospective landlord/scammer that the property has been rented. You will move on with your house/apartment hunting and be none the wiser until you start getting billed for the "free credit report monitoring" on your credit card. The scammer gets paid for everyone he signs up on the affiliate link." This is what the realtor told us to do. She needed the report to show the property.
I noticed the site was not secure although it said it was. Then to get to the report I just paid for with my debit card I had to enter my social security number. I refused to do this since it too was not showing the https address nor would it take the "s" to make it a secure address.
I did not hear back from Jessica Date from Solid State Properties but she got my debit card information. This is the true site for free credit reports http://www.ftc.gov/bcp/edu/microsites/freereports/index.shtml |

Same for Washington DC:
Hello,
Thanks for taking the time to email me about the place.
We thought we had the place rented last week to a young couple, but communication has dropped off. You are the first person to email about it since we put it back on the market . Normally, we would prefer a year lease, but would also be open to shorter terms if necessary. I'm sure that you will want to see the property before making a final decision. I will accept pets but no more than 2. I would simply give you the address and let you swing by, but my husband is against blindly advertising an empty home online. The home has been up kept properly and had a good cleaning and fresh coat of paint. Basic utilities are currently on, but we expect that you transfer them into your name fairly quick. If you want to go ahead and schedule a time to see the property, go to the link below and print off the free copy of your report. Your score isn't necessarily important, we're just interested in seeing that there are no evictions / landlord related judgments. The details on your previous rental experience is the only part we need to review immediately.
Go here to get the report: http://mysolidstateproperties.com/?Prop=S40915
I am very open as far as appointments go to show the property. Any morning after 10am is fine. Just let me know when you have everything printed and be sure to leave me a contact number to reach you at and any desired time. I will call you to confirm a time and choose a place to meet.
Thanks and hopefully I'll talk to you soon!

Same song and dance in Seattle, WA I called freecreditnation.com and and raised hell.
"It seems to be your website is involved in a scam with several dozen affected across the nation. You are providing people with "referral" incentives and you are doing nothing to eradicate the problem"
Them, "What are you referring to"
I elaborated on all our behalf.
Them "Oh yeah that.."
Me "WAIT!!! WTF?!!?!? YOU ARE AWARE OF THIS AND ARE THIS APATHETIC? Dont you think we have enough sh*t on our plate right now as Americans?"
"Sir I'm admitting nothing"
"No you are admitting you know about and have done nothing... Am I on a recurring billing"
"...yes"
WTFx2 I signed up to get one credit check.
Bring this site down. |

This sucks! Luckily that website couldn't be displayed on my mobile browser. Then I found this. I responded to her before I found this site, so we'll see if she contacts me back. I'm gonna call her out! |

I encountered the same thing from pursuing this listing:
http://boston.craigslist.org/gbs/nfb/2464444226.html
As soon as I saw she wanted me to get my own report, though, I googled the url, and found that it was a scam. I'm lucky so many people are wise to this stuff, and hope she doesn't get anyone else. The email is as follows:
