funny thing is...before i went with it, i did so googling and couldn't find any information on this person so I thought it was good to go until it was too late. After I wired the money, I then found a post.

I got scamed out of $800! from a sheri anderson and penny graham BEWARE!!!

Sheri Anderson is also at sherianderson1@live.com

Yes, I just fell off the turnip truck.  I too got scammed $297.50 to be exact just recently when this person asked for more money my girlfriend (more brains than me) googled the email address and found you folks (thank goodness).  I have contacted West Terre Haute police at 812 533 2114 to file a formal complaint and charges, apparently there is only one Western Union in this town and one person has already filed a complaint so I'm optimistic this person(s) will be caught shortly as Western Union is cooperating and have cameras and can narrow down the time frame.  I won't see my money back (credit card won't acknowledge these kinds of scams for refund) but, Western Union said I might get a refund on my wired transfer costs if I write them and tell them what happened.  If you've been caught on this, PLEASE report it to the police at West Terre Haute, the stronger the case the better.  It would appear only two of us actually reported.  I'm also registering the complaint to Yahoo and to Craigslist to attempt to shut this person down so it will be more difficult for it to happen again!

Looked at 3 apartments, found 3 scammers!

I was scammed by this Sheri Anderson person. This scam is coming from Nigeria! If you are contacted by IT or a Penny Graham, do not accept and confront them to let them know these ITs are SCAMMERS!

Do you maybe know what can I do? Is there anything ? SHould I go to police?

Thank you for posting this.  I was in communication with "Annabelle Churchill" about a suspiciously cheap Long Island vacation rental.  We did not get to the $ issue but the whole thing just seemed shady and I searched for the name on Google, and here it is!  Those m--f--krs forget that what goes around always comes around.

Thanks for putting this together!! I'm helping my cousin find a place. I live in NY so I asked to see the apt, but "Kimberly" wasn't available to show it. *Red Flag*

i email them ppl already , they all use money gram . thats crazy

the same thing happened to me but i didnt send the money becus she said send the money to her sister , that some shittttt

Thank you so much for this posting!! I was about to go forward with this when I finally got the contract and it noted that payment was wiring only, which was very fishy. So I looked it up and you guys just saved me $300, not to mention what I would have done when I got to NY!!

FYI, the person communicating with me is Rose Brooks [rose_pup01@yahoo.com]

Beware of EDWARDO-SUITE VACATION RENTAL!!

this time the name is PEGY FERGUSON!

I have not received any calls, but I Google'd this address and Nicole James and came to this page. This was the latest I received:
The property is much available for the dates you have chosen (6 nights) is $60/night;$360 for the total stay, to hold your dates; you are required to pay 50% ($180) + security deposit of $200= $380, so all you need pay to secure your dates is $380.The security deposit ($200) is fully refundable to you during departure via cash.

To secure your chosen dates you will need to transfer the deposit via western union, you will have to send the money to my accountant  and all the details and necessary information you need with my contact is in the booking form.. let me know when you are ready so i can send you the booking and agreement form to sign and complete..

You will meet me on your arrival face to face so that i can give you the keys of the apartment and show you around.Once i hear from you i will forward you the agreement and booking form.

Thanks
Nicole
