Wow, I think I got hit by this same scam in Auckland, NZ. Saw pictures of a perfectly fine little apartment. Showed up and it was actually a furniture storage unit- the living room had two couches, three desks, and two commercial scanner/copiers. The bed had 12 full-sized pillows and one sheet, and the sheet was so starched that I pinched the middle and lifted it to head height, and it just stayed there. You could sculpt it. The silverware drawer had 5 knives and one chopstick. The kitchen trash was full. The shower had a drain full of hair. I had to go buy soap and paper towels at a convenience store. I called the host (a "retired local woman") and got a man with an indian accent who offered me a "much larger and nicer property a few kilometers away", which I couldn't take because I was traveling with my family and we were just exhausted.
