Does This House Rental Posting Sound Sketchy?


Hello Destaney,
First and foremost, thank you for your interest in the home. I am available to show the house this week
if that fits your schedule.
Just to give you a little more information about the home, the water, trash
and garbage are paid by us. The security deposit can be paid in 2 installments if money is tight. (I know how that can be).
The house has a fenced in backyard and we do allow pets. The deposit per pet is a one time payment.
The house includes a washer and dryer, and we pay for lawn care so the renter does not have to cut the grass.
There is NO application fee (our company policy and guarantee).
I will be happy to show the house at an agreed upon time and date but I do require that all applicants and
additional renters who will be living in the home complete a free credit report to ensure their eligibility.
I have so many people apply for homes that I have to make sure they are qualified renters before I show the property.
This ensures neither of us will be wasting our time.
It is okay if you have bad credit (trust me). We just check to make sure that you don’t have several evictions on
your record. (We won’t rent if you have 3 or more evictions on your record)
I also had to recently stop giving out the exact address of rental properties before I am able to show them because
last time I did that the house was vandalized (I will be glad to send you the address right after your reply) I assure
you though that this is a very safe neighborhood. I actually lived in this home for 2 years (very cozy).
As soon as you can, please click the link below and go to the secure website to complete the free credit report (takes about 30 seconds)
Once you complete, I’ll call you once I receive the information from the credit company (very quickly usually).
cekreport.com/ZCovMSf6nBI/
(Copy and paste this link to your address bar if it is not clickable)
*** You don’t have to send me your credit report.
Once you fill out the report the credit company automatically forwards me your name, email address and whether you have
had any outstanding evictions in the past 5 years to determine your renter eligibility. This is the only information I am
interested in. This is a soft credit report so it won’t touch your FICO score (which is why we work with them).
This process turns some people off, so I completely understand if you decide not to complete them. In that case, good luck
with your home search. I just want to be honest with you up front about our process, which does a good job of protecting
us from ineligible renters and scammers. Also, the site above is one the safest and most secure website for credit reports in the
world, which is good for peace of mind. I have worked with them personally for a couple years now.
If you are truly interested in proceeding, take a moment and fill out one of the reports. Let me know when this is done and
we can then work out the time and date to go see the home. Email me back once you access your fresh report. I will be forwarded
the information. (Make sure to include a valid phone number. I usually call within 6 hours of submitting your report. Then I can
forward you the address and we can set up a time to tour the home.)
If eligible you will also be sent an email with my office number so we can set up a time to go see the house and discuss any
other questions or concerns you may have.
Thanks,
Janice

To Amazon Associates, If We Choose To Be Paid By The Gift Certificate/card Option, Is It Digital Credit?


Can any more-experienced Amazon associates/affiliates clarify this for me? I hear they send you an email. I’m considering this or the direct deposit option as they both don’t charge for processing.

Chase Checking Account $150 Bonus Help?


I just got a letter in the mail from chase that offers me a $150 bonus when I open an account with them. I currently do not have an account with chase but was planing on opening one. I feel though as if there is something sneaky with this such as I get this money deposited and then get charged it all back for keeping the account open.
Heres what it says
Bonus/Account Information — To qualify for the bonus you must open a new qualifying Chase checking account with a $100 minimum deposit of new money (money not currently held by Chase or its affiliates) within 60 days of account opening. Bonus will be automatically deposited into your new account within 10 business days after the $100 minimum deposit is made. Bonus is not considered part of minimum opening deposit. For new interest-bearing checking accounts, the Annual Percentage Yield (APY) is effective as of 5/6/11. The APY is 0.01% for all balances in all states. Interest rates are variable and subject to change. Fees may reduce earnings on the account. Limit one checking account-related bonus per customer, per calendar year. Offer not available on account conversions or in combination with any other offer. Checking account must remain open for a minimum of six months or the bonus amount will be debited from the account at closing. Account is subject to approval. Account is subject to approval. Bonus is considered interest and will be reported on IRS Form 1099-INT.

Basic Book Keeping – Affiliate Marketing Deductions And Credits?


I promote online games where players make real cash deposits and can win real money. Each player is eligible for a bonus comp on their deposit. Meaning, if Player A deposits $100 they receive a $100 bonus.
If Player A loses, then they lose not only their deposit but also the bonus.
At the end of the month these bonuses are deducted from the Gross Gaming Revenue of that month. However, I don’t see how each bonus can be deducted if the player loses this back to the house.
If Player A receives a $100 bonus but loses the bonus, then the house is neither ahead $100 or lost $100, they are in fact even.
If Player A wins and makes a withdrawal then yes the house is out the $100 bonus. Then and only then can the house deduct this loss of $100 bonus from the Gross Gaming Revenue and of course any winnings cashed out by Player A.
However, and maybe I’ve got this wrong, but how can a $100 bonus be given, then lost, effectively being returned to the house and then being deducted? That doesn’t make sense.
It’s similar to me lending a friend $100. At that point I’d be out $100. However my friend returns the $100 and I’m back to square. I’m neither out nor ahead, I’m square again.
My question, given what I’ve tried to explain above, does this make sense, or am I being diddled on bonuses being deducted when they should not be deducted at all?
