Hi,
I Really appreciate your reply,I have to be sure you are indeed capable of paying the rent bill.I do not want you to have the feeling that i am asking for money BEFORE you see what you are renting because i know that payment is payment and also to know how much you need my flat. I have had lots of renters recently that eventually ended up giving me stories of their financial distress. Am just trying as much as I can to avoid the same thing happening to me again..please hope you understand me better?
THIS IS HOW TO MAKE THE DEPOSIT VIA MONEY-GRAM WITH YOUR DETAILS ( A MONTH AND SECURITY DEPOSIT )
Sender name: YOUR NAME
Senders address: Your complete address
Exact Amount To Be deposited: Rent of £450+ deposit of £350
Receiver's Name: YOUR SPOUSE NAME
Receiver's address: London, United Kingdom
I was also made to understand that Money-Gram takes some charges for the transfer and i am telling you that i will return back to you the full transfer charges whether you decide to rent the flat or not when we meet,OK? Please understand that i am NOT asking you to pay me BEFORE you view the flat as payment is to be done AFTER viewing. I only want to be sure that i am not going to waste my time this time around and i think that with this condition, both of us can be sure we are not wasting our times...all i want to see on the transfer receipt scanned copy is the evidence!you can go ahead and make the transfer since you have the money ready, You will have to email me the paper copy of the money-gram after you have done it and after the viewing i will drive you down to the Money-Gram office nearby to pick up your deposit back the same day after the viewing. Okay?
PS:I am sorry for the lengthy mail.I only want to explain myself better.
Awaiting your feedback soon
Thanks

Hi,
So all you need to do now is very easy and secure for you now,
THIS IS HOW TO SEND MONEY:
Simple. Just go to your nearest Money-gram Agent location, fill in your details and They will take care of the rest for you. They are probably right around the corner in your nearest post office. You will fill out the Money-gram form provided.
Give the Agent the amount of money that you (the sender) want to send together with the necessary service fees2, I will be responsible for the cost of transfer charges, as soon as you arrive to my flat Once you have done this. You will be required to sign a receipt after you have verified all the details printed on the receipt are correct.

No, You are not sending me any money...But to your spouse name or you can meet me messenger now to explain better to you.
Thanks
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.
