Dr.kingston needs apt in Spain

Post by luisortiz »

I have a beach house in Caribbean and I posted a Spanish ad in Madrid Craigslist.
I'm tempted to call the number, but it's probably not legit.

100% garbage - with classic clues.

For the connoisseur, though, interesting they've started to use Gmail; rare in my experience.

There are some very strange writing styles here:
I am Dr.kingston
If this guy is supposed to be educated and living in the UK, does he not know that Kingston should begin with a capital K? An error he repeats several times.
I am Jessica Giggs by name
What's with the 'by name'?
I will be signing a one yearlease
Does he not want to know more about the apartment first?
