Welcome to the site Thankfulguy101 and it's good to hear you found out before you paid out.

A simple check on Google shows he's making scam offers for apartments in Vienna, Amsterdam and Brooklyn too.

CAR ADVERTS - If a car seller mentions escrow - he's scamming you Never ever for any reason pay anything until you have seen and inspected the vehicle

I am trying to make a temp housing arrangement for my short term assignment in Winnipeg and ran into the same "Wegner Lee" living in Philly with a sublet at 88 Southpark Drive in Winnipeg. It seemed too good to be true, hence I Google his name, and it is indeed too good to be true. In fact, I get the exact same letter from him upon my inquiry except a different address. THANKS GUYS!!!!!!
