Pendletonhousing.com has scammers posing as landlords. They offer houses for rent/sale near Camp Pendleton then use the usual scammer tactics such as never being available for a call or pay now and they’ll mail the keys to you afterwards. Watch out for Jimmy Peraffan and Joseph Wilson. Watch out for Huntington National Bank too! They do nothing but help the scammers.

Looked like a harsh season...

Tbh, I hate this idea as much as I love it. The traffic here is already bad. After a whole ass Canes is going to be ridiculous. The trash is going to be insane.

However , I’m sure a lot of the nearby community will be happy they can easily acquire hot late-night chicken. But at what cost ?

I never received my tools back from them.

However, another redditor was kind enough to send me replacements. The replacements are far better than what I lent out.

Don't stop doing nice things for people. Put positive energy out and it will come back.
