Guarantee you don't get a call. If you do, great. But never EVER EVER give out info like this.

A+ scammer points for actually having someone come and check out the room in real life if this actually is a scam. adds huge authenticity points.

People in europe don't use checks, they use bank transfers. I am not sure what kinds of scams u can do if u know someones IBAN# and name. But no way u can do anything harmful with just those.

few months ago someone posted on Craigslist that they were moving and needed to get rid of all their furniture, clothes, home decor, linens, etc, etc

people came in droves and cleaned the house up...took everything inside and out

turned out the lady that posted the "moving out of town, come take my belongings for free" didn't own the house or even live there...she was pissed at her neighbor so she let the general public take all her stuff while she was out of town

the lady returned home and find out what happened and wants craiglist to take some of the blame...

The dude that came over to see the place is probably the scammer working by himself, not some chick in Sweden who had a fake boyfriend come over to check it out.
