Subject: RE: apartment share
This is absolutely great, I've been waiting to read from an interesting tenant that really want to secure the place. My father work in government office in the year of 1984 before he died while my mother live in Utah where she own a big farm. I just got my retirement letter from NAVY some months ago and my family want me back home in Utah. I will like to know the maximum number of tenant that want to move into the place and if is there is any pet. I will consider Short or Long Term lease if you can promise to take very good care of the place once you move in.
If you really want to rent the property, you will need to provide the below information;
Full name:
Profession :
Present Address of the applicants:
Zip code :
Reasons for Leaving :
How long do you intend staying :
Do you drink:
Ph#: Cell & Home :
Email:
Single Or Married :
Children:
Pet : If any ()
Date of Tenancy:
I ............CERTIFY that answers given herein are true and complete to the best of my knowledge. I authorize investigation of all statements contained in this application for tenant screening as may be necessary in arriving at a tenant decision. I understand that the landlord may terminate any rental agreement entered into for any misrepresentation made above.
Landing 22'1 "x 5'10" (6 .. 73m x 1.78m)
Reception room 17'0 "x 16'0" (5.18m x 4.88m)
Kitchen 13'0 "x 11'0" (3.96M x 3.35 m)
Bedroom 12'10 "x 10'5" (91M x 3.18M)
Bathroom 6'10 "x 5'10" (2.08m x 1.78m)
WC 5'0 "x 2'10" (1,52 m x 0,86 m).
I want you to make sure the present address is not mistaken because that's where the keys and documents will be ship to. The contents of the shipment you will be expecting are:
1. Bunch of keys to the property.
2. Documents containing the lease agreement and property description , including the property address.
3. Rent receipts and damage deposit receipts.
I want you to email me once you fill the rent application form, the shipment of the package containing the keys and other documents will be ship by secure courier service once the deposit payment is paid.
Thanks.
Richard.
The thief will tell you that you can rent his accommodation only if you can prove that you have genuine interest. He will ask you send money by wire transfer (normally Western Union) to yourself or a member of the family to show that you have sufficient finances and that you are not a "time waster".
Another variation of this scam is that you need to send (by Western Union) money in order that the keys and other documents can be couriered to you
He will ask you to send him the transfer details.
Make no mistake ! Western Union Transfers can be picked up virtually anywhere in the world and with the minimum of identification. They are almost impossible to trace once the money has been collected. You will never get to see the accommodation or your money again.
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 Gumtree or similar listing sites. If you receive any requests from 'Landlords' asking for some kind of payment by Western Union 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.
