My TUG classified ad was just "mined" by Vacation Homes only- Beverly Hills CA- Preston.
Has anyone dealt with this company or is it just another troll working the TUG members with an upfront scam fee?
Thanks
Old Buyer

If there's an upfront fee, it is almost certainly a scam.

certainly but apparently they are TUG members and are sending blind spam emails to TUG members inquiring on posted TUG classified ads.

Hopefully the moderator will pursue this abuse of using their TUG access to solicit business outside of TUG.

FYI: Registering for a TUG handle does NOT make poster a TUG Member.

I am NOT a paying TUG member - and I can PM and email people thru TUG.

My error, it is RW that you must register first to respond to a FS or rent advert.
Thanks for the clarification- perhaps a good reason for renting or selling on RW.
