So, I am in the process of buying a house. We decided to close in July. I have put up ads on CL and FB to rent the room with its own bathroom. The responses I am getting sound really scamish to me. I am not renting to these people, but i just don't see how renting a room could be made into a scam, but yet I am totally getting that vibe. I am including 2 responses.

iii) Also I will like to know if there is any garage or parking space cos I will have my own car come over.
iv) I will also be coming with some of my furniture, that is if it is allowed, like bed, book shelf cos I read a lot, shoe rank etc
v) I will also like to know if I can make an advance payment ahead my arrival that will be as a kind of commitment that I am truly coming over and for you to hold the room down for me.
