Lisa Dondald-son Tried taking my "deposit" before sending the keys to the unit San Diego California

Lisa Donald-son. Dr. Lisa Donald-son. She said her and her family worked out of state for Department of Defense Military healthcare system, VA/DoD Healthacre affairs and OHS Health Care in three major cities. Said she was looking for a renter and that she worked really hard on this property and needed someone who was going to take care of it.
She was out of town, so I could not see the unit but I could drive by the building and let me know if I liked it. Asked me to fill out an application and if she approved I would send her a $700 deposit and her "lawyer" would then send the keys to the address I provided.
This was too good to be true, so I had a friend Google image search her image and this website popped up with the same picture she sent me and a different name. Rent was well below surronding areas. This is how she gets you. $700 for a fully furnished condo in San Diego, call me stupid but it almost sounded like an AirBnB.
Emails she used were [email protected] and [email protected]. Poor grammer when sending emails, sentences didnt make sense. Strange capitalizations and punctuation. Fake ad, fake story, fake person!

Nice Slander Job

This scam you nearly fell for is very common - and very old - it's been around since there were classified ads in newspapers. Foreign scammers can now participate in the scam thanks to the internet.
The problem with your complaint is that you have no idea who the person was that scammed you because it wasn't the person you named and put a photo of on the internet for the world to see. The person who scammed you is PRETENDING to be that person, and isn't located anywhere in the US.
It's fairly simple to pretend to be someone else on the internet, so unless you actually MEET the person and see who they are, you have no idea who you are dealing with on the other end. So now you've gone ahead and dragged an innocent person's name through the mud. Nice going slandering another person.
What you should be doing is either dealing with the owner of a property in-person, or contact a realtor who can provide assurance to you that you are dealing with a legitimate party. That is the morale to your story - not dragging someone's name through the mud. Yes, it's time to call you STUPID.
