Mozzoni Martina <[email protected]>:
Thanks for your interest in wanting to be my tenant.
I bought this apartment for my son during he's studies, but now he is back home in Parma, Italy permanently, so i am renting the place for unlimited time.
Before we go any further i would like to know something about you, like how many persons you intend to live in the apartment, what is your job, how old are you and for how long you will stay.
It is furnished but if you need it unfurnished, i can order for the furniture be moved to storage.
The rent is EUR 300 and include of the below listed utilities:
• High Speed Internet
• Utilities (water/gas/electricity/heating)
• TV Cable
• Parking Spot
Short or long term lease?! The lease is flexible, can be month to month, min stay 1 month - max 8/9 years. The price will not increase monthly, it will remain the same for the whole period that the contract will be signed for.
About pets.. there are no problems if you have pets, as long as you clean up after them!
Now, a little bit about myself so we can get to know each other better. My name is Martina Mozzoni and I'm a 43 years old.
The only inconvenience is that my job doesn't allow me to leave Italy even for one single day. We just hired some new staff and I'm in charge of their training. But this won't affect you at all.
I can make arrangements to rent the apartment from Italy (on my expense of course).
Looking forward to hear from you soon.
Kind Regards,
Martina Mozzo

Thanks for your reply,
You seem to be a very nice person and I can assure you we will not have any problems.
It has been up kept properly and had a professional, top-to-bottom cleaning.
Like I have inform you before, the price you shall pay for 1 month of rent will be EUR 300 and i want also a guarantee deposit EUR 300 (the guarantee deposit EUR 300 you will receive back at the end of the contract), with no extra taxes to pay. The rent, I want to receive them monthly to my bank account, so I hope it will be no problem for you to wire the money.
The apartment is ready for you, you will only have to receive the key to check it and see if you like it. In order of that, I've found a way for us to complete the deal safely and fast so you will receive the keys in less than 2 days. No one could help me show the apartment because I don't know the neighbors very well.
The solution I've chosen is provided by Airbnb (www.airbnb.com); they handle rentals for people who are unable to solve them alone, which are abroad etc., so they will take care both the delivery and payment.
I will support all the shipping taxes for the package.
I will explain the procedure if you are interested so please email me as soon as you read this message because I really need to take care of this matter.
Best Regards,
Martina .
This person asks for a deposit payment via Western Union, MoneyGram, pre-paid credit card or bank transfer with a promise that you can have the keys to a property that does not belong to him.
Sounds safe. It's not!
At other times, he will ask for proof that you are able to pay the deposit and rent due to a string of time wasters.
This proof is in the form of a Western Union, MoneyGram or Bank payment to a lawyer,a friend or family member.
In either case, if payment is made and you give this person the details, they will collect the money.
You will not hear from them again.
All the details such as names, addresses, pictures etc. that the scammer uses in order to back up his story, are stolen from elsewhere.
If you are reading this because you are looking for property to rent, and you are in contact with this thief you are probably searching Craigslist, Gumtree or similar listing sites. If you receive any requests from 'Landlords' asking for some kind of payment before viewing, then it will also be a scam. Please forward the mail to me at the address in my signature line and I will investigate and list them if necessary.
