国内暑假生来美租房可能被骗，请问大家该这么办？急！！！

该女生8月1号到UCLA ，在UCLA 学习6个星期。 在网上找到：

Dara Allen APT http://www.rentals.com/Apartments/California/Los-Angeles/r1049549/

1。
已经WesternUnion汇款美金 2250 （ first month rental fee *$1200* plus the refundable
security deposit *$1050*）

给property account officer
>> Name: Mr James Brown

> >> >> Address: New York, NY 10024

2。Dara Allen(Owner???) 邮件确认收到汇款， 然后给她发去另外一个邮件。
> >> Attached in this email is the Reservation Receipt.

3. 至此，该女生怀疑是骗子，不敢再汇款，向我询问。 我在美国9年，没有听说短期RENT还要：

> >> 1. Government Tax: $290
> >> 2. Association Fee: $410
> >> 3. Building Renters Insurance: $1050. Making a total of $1750.

现建议她发信要回自己的2250美金。我明天会给1-322-386-4682（网上显示的电话） 查询。该女生现在很担心安全问题，也不敢住那。
请大家分析一下，是不是一个骗局。该怎么要回那2250美金。等那女生8月1号到美国后报警？我们现在能做什么。 急 ！！！

IT IS a 骗局 Because craiglist says:

NEVER WIRE FUNDS VIA WESTERN UNION, MONEYGRAM or any other wire service - anyone who asks you to do so is a scammer.

今天打电话过去，没有人接。发传真，没有人回。那女生8月1号到，到时她回报警，看看能不能捞回来一点。她在国内是好大学，到UCLA上暑假班，顺带学学英语。可能是以前比较顺，太大意，没有社会经验。
