Room for Rent and other rental scams

Another rental scam. The scammer went to the trouble to create an email account with the exact same name as the person on the county assessor's public data as the owner of the house, who does live in a different city than the property, although not in Texas like indicated in the email. I found the house listed for sale on a realtors site, and the realtor confirmed that it was a scam.

THOMAS A ALEXANDER

THE HOUSE IS STILL AVAILABLE to move in as soon as possible. I decided to rent it out because we are going to spend more time here in Texas, about 3 years due to my job. The address is 1240 D Ave Marion IA 52302, I will want you to drive down to the house at your convenience time and you can peep through the window to view the inside of the house and make sure you look around so you can see how the property is taking good care off. I want you to know that am not after the money at all but who will take good care of my house.The rent is $500 and the security deposit is $700. So If you are willing and ready to rent the house. Get back to me and let me know your plans so we could proceed.
