rental-data.com

I think I've found either a scam or a poor business model. I was looking around on craigslist when I found what I thought at first was a two-bedroom house for $895. Turns out it's just a spammy post that wants you to go to this site and give them $35 to find you a rental. Why would I pay $35 to search some private company's database, when I can search craigslist for free? I'm thinking craigslist has a bigger selection by times a billion, so what gives? Am I missing something?

Rental-data.com seems scammy to me. My buddy directed me to the site after he saw an ad for the site. I got to the point where it asks for your credit card...and I thought to myself...no freakin' way. Who are these people?
