> My name is Madeline, I am from Denmark and the flat is still available for rent. It was redecorated last year is looking very nice and clean. Has a fully furnished kitchen, clean and well tidy room, fully furnished with home utilities like: shower, Lounge, Vacuum Cleaner, Toaster, Oven and microwave, dryer, iron, washing machine , refrigerator , dishwasher, heater, cable ready, TV set and DVD player, Internet connection, equipped kitchen and everything a house needs. I'm interested in finding someone clean who can take care of this house more then getting money from renting it if you know what I mean.

Please accept my apologies if I am rude but I hope you will understand me!

The studio is located in Andover Pl, North Maida Vale, London, NW6 5EF but I can`t give you the exact address because there`s no one living out there and I`m afraid of thieves and I do apologize for this but I hope you understand me because I`m in Denmark right now! The property comprises well proportioned studio with double bed, kitchen and bathroom. Parking place is included too!

> In the kitchen there is a dishwasher and also a fridge freezer! Regarding the council tax I can tell you that it is included in the price of £595 per month and also internet broadband, gas and electricity are also included in this price! I am interested in a long term agreement and I request one month rent in advance plus the equivalent of one month as a refundable deposit which you will get back at the end of the contract.

> We can sign the rental contract starting from weekend but I need to be sure that you have serious intentions in renting the studio that`s why I attached here a model of the rental contract and also we can discuss the terms when we will meet!

> We could meet and maybe sign the tenancy agreement this Sunday but you see, due to previous predicament that I have gone through in the past trying to rent the property to some students, I have got to realize that many people are not really in need of an apartment all they do is secure a place in advance, my last experience in trying to rent the property to a particular lady had got me to predicate on these, she made me believe she was willing and ready to get the apartment she even went to the extend of showing me her statement of account, which made me took her for the viewing but after taking her for the viewing, she saw the apartment and got to love it and never wanted to loose it, so she kept pleading I retain it for her because she is not financially composed at the moment, which I did but ended up disastrously.
> So basically for me to be sure of you been willing and ready to get the apartment I will employ you walk into any Western Union agency and send the total bill cash £1190(one month rent and one month refundable deposit) to your partner's name or a friends name(NOT to ME)or your partner can send it to your name with the destination of United Kingdom. All I need is for you to get back to me with the receipt issued to you after making the transaction so I can confirm it!
> When we will meet in person to sign the papers we will go together to Western Union and you will withdraw the cash and pay me in hand! I just need to see that do you have the money available and you do have serious intentions in renting the flat! If the Western Union agent will ask you about the receiver you should tell him that is a relative of yours because the transfer fees will be cheaper! If you will tell them the reason they might consider this a commercial transaction and charge you more. Anyway I will pay for it either you take the flat or not! I will book the flight for Sunday as soon as I have your positive answer !
> I do apologies for that but as I told you last time when I arrived to London to show the flat to a person everything was a stupid joke and I hope you understand me because I don`t want to waste my time and money on plane tickets.

> Please note that I didn't asked for any kind of advance payment and the main reason I asked for the western union is the fact that I can come only in weekend when the banks are closed and some Western Union agents are open 24 hours!
> You just have to go to any Western Union agency with your ID and cash money, fill out a form with your name(sender) and the receiver name( the person who will cash out the money you sent when we will meet)! There's no need for the receiver to be present when you will go to the Western Union agency and I think that the fees for this money transfer will be cheaper if you send the money to a family member that s why I told you to tell the agent that the receiver is a relative of yours!
> As soon as you made this transaction you will get the receipt and only the sender and the receiver have the right to cash out the money using their ID when you will do that-in fact on Sunday as soon as we sign the tenancy agreement! In this way I am sure you will have the money available in cash at the moment when we will meet on Sunday when the banks are closed and some Western Union agencies are open and you have the assurance that I will keep the flat reserved for you! Please send me some close up pictures of the receipt as soon as you made the transaction and have the receipt so I could buy the flight ticket in time! For the next payment we will use my bank account and all the things will be much easy!
> I am very sorry if you cannot accept my terms but I hope you could understand me that I can't risk to come again without having any kind of assurance that I will meet someone who really needs a home!
