Renters beware!

Trying to rent out a room? Adverts posted on Craig's List might have been hit with scammers. Even when you post all the details... they still ask the questions that have been answered. All the stories are the same... "I'm so and so. I am a quite person and do not interfere with other peoples matters. I currently live in London and will be moving to the states to do research for my agency. Blah blah blah..." Yeah... but no.
The girl we rented from walked into that one without thinking about it. Her story was from a girl that lived in Idaho. The "woman's" company would be paying for her move, but she was going to go to France to take care of her sick uncle first. She explained the company would send our former roommate a check for the said amount with additional to help pay for her travel expenses. The check was well tracked and the roommate got a call from a man that claimed to be the uncle. He asked about the check and said that it will need to be sent via Western Union to the travel agent that is going to take care of the travel plans. Trusting to the needs, she withdrew the amount requested and sent it out. A day later, the woman emailed our roommate and said she received everything, thanked her, and said she couldn't wait to meet us. Just short of a week later, our roommate was declinded a transaction from the bank and found she was well over $2,000 in the negatives. She called in scared and it was then, she learned she had been had.
If it is too good to be true, it really is...
I'll be looking up IP addresses and posting details. It sucks that this is a VERY common thing... and I'm curious to know how many people fell for it...
