Scam Description
This person has a listing on the Facebook marketplace. She gives her email and says to contact her that way. When you email her she tells you she’s in the army, so she has apartments listed with Airbnb. You have to send her your current address that she says she sends to Airbnb, then they send you the invoice for 1,500, which includes a security deposit and the first months rent. Only after you pay this are you able to go look at the apartment and know the location. She then emails you asking you to take the invoice, and cash, go to a bitcoin location( which she finds one close to you) and wants you to make the payments that day. Luckily I didn’t do any of that. I am upset that I gave her my address though.
