Is hiddenlistings.com Safe?

This site seeks information that is not relevant to what they claim. Being asked if one wants credit scores, money help, or any other personal information is not acceptable. The site claims to provide info on homes for rent, and eventual purchase, but there is to much personal information requested.

I was actually taken to this web site from another web site called ***** after being asked to type in the city & state in which I was searching for homes after which it took me to this particular web site. Once on this web site it shows you a bunch of to-good-to-be-true houses at unbelievably low prices. The site calls them "Hidden Homes". It touts them as real estate listings you won't find anywhere else. When you click on one of these listings that you're interested in a prompt comes up and tells you that you must become a "member" to view the listings details. This requires you to enter your zip code and email address. Sounds easy enough right? Wrong! After you type that in and click enter you are then taken to another page that requires both your personal and credit card information. It offers you a "free trial membership" for a a few weeks or something like that. But it does require a $1.00 charge on your credit card for that "free trial membership" And I do believe this it involves some sort of continuity type deal where you have to let them know that you do not want to renew your "membership" or else your credit card will just be automatically charged for further membership renewals into perpetuity until you yourself proactively put a stop to it. The site also does that thing where if and when you try to leave it by clicking the back button it won't let you immediately. Instead it gives you a bunch of prompts asking you if you're "sure" you really want to leave the site; in just the same way that ***** does. Then just as you are exiting the site for good a screen pops up with a "live agent" to "help you". Seems pushy and suspicious to me. I have always been told that you should never pay for any kind of home or other real estate listings. So needles to say I don not like this web site. The lure-you-in/bait and switch manner in which it tries to get your personal and credit card information seems very, very scamish to me. I do not recommend this web site and I especially do not recommend anyone giving it any information of any kind! there are plenty of free and reputable MLS sites to be found on the web. I advise avoiding this one. "
