Gypsy,
they might ask for cash so they don't have to report it, or so you won't have a record of the transaction, or because they don't actually own the place they're renting. I've heard that's a common scam on craigslist. Could you arrange to meet with them to get a tour of the house, so you know they at least have keys? Maybe get the TMK and check ownership?
Your friends should rent MY place in Puako--only $9,000 cash, and I'll waive the cleaning fee!
disclaimer: this is not a real offer--I don't have a place in Puako.
