<prompt> Human: My friend and I have been talking to a home owner looking to rent his home. Only thing is he lives on the other side of the country and wants me to pay rent via cashiers checks through the mail. He also says he will mail us the key and paperwork once he gets first month and security deposit. Is any of this normal am I a moron?Also I apologize if the formatting is off Im more of a lurker.  <response>: This is a very common scam. Dont do it.
