I hate scammers like these who not only give me false hope for 2 seconds that I could find a place that cheap in the area, but also probably scammed some less-sharp people of their money. (And for those of you unfamiliar with Bay Area rent, it's about 1300 for a very cheap 2-bedroom in a shady neighborhood here in the South Bay, maybe cheaper in east San Jose.)
The email is carlpratt@ymail.com. Feel free to sign this guy up for any spam mailing lists. He'll probably just get a new email addy, but it'd be too much work to do more than spam him or report his ass to someone.
