so Smith nicholars is a scam?.. im trying to find an apt in NY =S PLEASE HELP

BEWARE of Sherri Gordon alias Justin Waterside on craigslist!!! Allthough being sceptical from the start we've sent $450 deposit "to her son" one week ago and haven't heard from her since. Now I've found this website (too late, unfortunately) and what did fake apartement owner "Nicholars Smith" wrote:"Also i have quest that have stayed in my apartment recently and they enjoy my hospitality: SHERRI, 4355 Central Ave, Ceres Ca 95307, sherri.gordon96@gmail.com"So don't make the same mistake we did!!! I will never ever use a website like craigslist anymore! How overtrustful can one be?!? STUPID!!!

Thank goodness I saw your post on Sherri Gordon. I was just about to confirm reservations. Also, you might want to beware there are 2 other people who are questionable - the give the same description of property but located in different areas of Manhattan then for payment, they both say to send to their younger brother in New Mexico. What a scam. How do you know which ones are for real?

Hello!I sent a $350 dollar deposit to Nicolars Smith, but since then he didn't reply to my mails any more.Fram what I read here, it's a scam.What do I have to do? Signalling it to CG?

I've been just victimized by Nicolars Smith for $350. I found this web site too late.I'm feeling idiot, it was clear it was a fraud. What do su seggest to me? Just signalling him to CG?

And also BEWARE of ASHLEY LANGFORD alias JUSTIN WATERSIDE.He or she is definitely a SCAM!!!Before going to NCY we sent him $320 ($200 deposit plus half of the money which was $60 per night)The first 3 days we stayed at a hostel and so we went to the street (158, Christopher St, NY, NY 10014) to check if the appartment really exists. We found the right house but there were no buzzes outside. Besides we had been sceptical about his e-mail address justinwaterside@yahoo.com because this could not be his last name. Arriving at Christopher St. it was claer that the appartment is close to the Manhattan Waterside...Then we wrote him an e-mail just to make sure that we will meet him at the time we agreed on. He didnt answer anymore. We also tried to call him on the number he gave us beforehand but it didn´t work (his number was: 518-712-3018).However we went to his appartment at the right time but he didn´t show up! All this happened to us last week.[***] you Justin Waterside!!!!

I'm glad I found this site. I just saved myself $330. Do NOT rent an apartment or make arrangements to rent on from JANE SYNOVEC. I was prepared to rent an apt from her for 4 days later this month and the bad English/grammar used in her responses got me to thinking everything wasn't so rosy on the other end of things. So I searched and found this webpage. I got a contract to sign and on it was the number (216) 539-7410...which is a number to Cleveland, OH. She also wanted me to Western Union money to her husband in New Mexico...her husband named MARK COY. Yeah, so different last names, telephone numbers in a different area, Western Union money orders...I smelled a scam. Folks, if it's too good to be true...Anyway, I caught this in the nick of time and hopefully saved someone else out there some heartache/$$ in the process.

I agree with you. I'm the property's owner they stole the info from . Please go through the legitimate website like homeaway.com to find short-term rentals in NYC (you will see the real price of the real NYC apartment...not $50, $65, or even $100). We as a property owner had to go through a lot of paper works to proof that we really own the place. That's a good thing for you, the renter. Please...if it's too good to be true, it's probably not. Use your common sense!
