The rent is $18,950 per month

There is a well known scam running on Craigslist 'For Let' boards now. The scam artist will post a flat/home for rent at an extremely attractive price, and then collects as many security deposits from as many people as possible. Lots of permutations, but you get the drift.

You cannot assume the ads are legit. That they grabbed your attention enough to prompt you to link them on ET strongly suggests they are scam ads. That would be my bet.
