Thank you for your interest in the apartment, the suite is available for long and short term rent. A couple of weeks ago, me and my family relocated to the Philippines due to my recent appointment as a Missionary Consultant. Nonetheless, our only concern is to find a good and responsible person that will maintain and govern the apartment properly in our absence (The reason for the fee been reduced). We want it to be clean and the person that will rent it to maintain it as if the place was their own.

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.
We frequently turn down most people we deem unfit to rent the place out of the loads of emails we receive, as we do not accept excessive drinking and smoking inside the apartment.
I look forward to read from you with all the details requested so that i can have it in my file for reference purpose and also in case of issuing the receipt to you and contacting you as i am very busy with work over here. I await your urgent reply so that we can discuss on how to get the keys and document to you.
Thank You.

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 or MoneyGram 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.
