Divine Home Managements a scam!!! ... I think

[traveler]

Hello -

I have been looking for temporary rentals in the UK and trying to avoid scams, which is how I found this great forum. I am wondering if anybody has heard of Divine Home Managements (link below for a flat to rent on the site)

http://divinehomemanagements.com/london ... -flat.html

Basically, what was starting to make me wonder, besides there being loads of scammers out there, was that in their terms and conditions they said they can no longer accept credit cards due to high amounts of fraud and that payment must be a direct transfer to a bank account. Then I looked up their us based number
+1 206 600 5599, which belongs to a radio station, or at least used to. Anyhow, the more I look into it, the more it seems a scam. Even though I haven't found anything on the internet explicitly linking them to be.

They say they offer accommodations in the US, London and Paris and in looking at the copyright website at the bottom of the site, they have a different one for each country, a total of three websites. I would love for it to not be a scam but looking doubtful.

Thanks for any help that you can provide!

On it - Michael

Update:

just read the citybasehomeletting.com scam thread, and these guys and their three websites are the same. also say they are based at 8 Station Road, Finchley, London. N3 2RY on one of them.

Do you have any emails from them that you could post? If so please include the headers. Our site killers will have the website shut down and an email from them would be helpful for that purpose.
Thanks for posting!

This certainly appears to be a scam. That website was created just last week. Can you post some of the emails including the headers you received from them? Take out your personal information. If your not sure on how to find headers you can go here http://www.ip-adress.com/faq/view_email_header/

Glad you got suspicious!
