Craiglist listing: $130 / 1br - Best Reviewed Apartment! 1 Bedroom Apartment with Large Balcony (Greenwich Village)

I went looking for a NYC apartment and found this one. Realised early it was a scam but got as much info as possible. I asked for reviews, which he pasted from the original site where he stole the images from. I also asked for a copy of his driver's license and the booking form.
