I can't wait to arrive to US cause I've heard a lot about US.Moreso I will be staying for the period of 4-5 months, Pls do get back to me with the room description, move in rent fees for the first month, Utilities and deposit if included. And if any picture of the room is available, kindly attach it with your reply please.

    WTF??????? i am not understanding the Nigerian Check Scam on this one. they all work for non profit orgs, speak very poor engrish, and tell me way too much detail about their life. they aren't even offering to trade sex for rent or something that obvious. one of them says she speaks German. i think i'll reply to her in my non grammatically correct German and make her head hurt too!

          They want to get you to cash the deposit check they send you and then give them some money back or something like that. Then the check will turn out to be a fake and you'll get stuck paying it back.

          Tell them its $15,350 a month for rent and $4500 for utilities. I guarantee they'll say ok and blah blah blah.

          Often you can tell if they didn't even read your ad. I'm sure you said the price in the ad and there all asked for it.

          Well, posterity, you will never know what it cost us to preserve your freedom. I only hope that you will make a good use of it. If you do not, I shall repent in heaven that I ever took half the pains to preserve it.

              All BS.....you're interested in finding a roommate, not hearing life story after life story. The reply should be no more complicated than this....

              "I'm interested in learning more about the roommate ad you ran on CL. Are utilities included? What about on-site laundry? Small pets ok? Please call me so we can discuss this in detail. My cell is 555.1212."

              No more complicated than that. Everything else is a scam.

                yea, maybe i can get a prized Nigerian million dollar check to hang on my wall!
                i was thinking along the lines of establishing residence, sue for injuries incurred in the house, ETC or something along those lines.

                i have only received one real reply.

                the last one had a pic of an ugly, chunky Slavic girl attached to the email. she was rough! i guess it wouldn't show up.

                  You want to run a little experiement on CL with your roommate ad? Here's what you do (a friend of mine did this for shits & grins).

                  Write out two different ads - just make sure there are no similarities in the wording. Once you're done with that, take one of the ads and add "gay friendly" into it.

                  When my friend did this, the gay friendly ad got over 30 replies. The other ad, 4 replies :o

                            that is why i shared this crap. it is soooo bad i miss details because it hurts my brain to try to comprehend the sentence structure and interpret what they are saying or trying to say!

                            maybe "nursing" since she was 19 (knocked up)

                              Seriously? Ya think? We all buy and sell cars on this forum, lets give the guy the benefit of the doubt that he knows they are a scam. KTHX
