Roomster The app is Roomster. I first went on Craig's list to search for rooms for rent and 7 out of 10 refer me to this website. Accept it wasn't a functioning website but somehow directed me to the app. To access the platform required a $14 verification process "to keep there members safe from fraudulent activity".

The app is Roomster. I first went on Craig's list to search for rooms for rent and 7 out of 10 refer me to this website. Accept it wasn't a functioning website but somehow directed me to the app. To access the platform required a $14 verification process "to keep there members safe from fraudulent activity". Once verified you opt in to the free version or the premium version at $9.99. Accept the free version offers basically next to nothing.

So your phone is flooded with notifications of folks who have offers but they ask you to contact them outside the application because "they don't use the premium version". So, my assessment is they hire folks to put up fake accounts, embellish offers that are hard to resist, and use language effectively to lower your resistance. The customer service of the app in my assessment is in cahoots making the entire operation fraudulent. Unfortunately I disregarded the signs but hopefully we can at the very least finds ways to expose it for what it is if it's what I think it is. Thanks!
