to me
Thanks for the quick response.However, At this stage that you want to rent my apartment, i need to ask some few questions from you.
1. Can you take care of my apartment ? I mean damages wise..
2. How many months do you intend to rent and pay for?
It is unfortunate that i will not be doing a showing until everything has been solidified and concluded due to past experience taking tenants round the apartment. And also i have to commute from Oakland to do that.
I require the security deposit and 1 month rent payment upfront to secure the apartment but before that, i will need some information from you to draft a contract which you will print and bring along with you on your move in date.
Your full name:
Present address:
Confirmed moving in date:
Confirmed moving out date:
Phone Number :
Kindly get back to me with these information so that i can tell you how to proceed with the payment.Feel free to contact me on 415-663-7201,if i do not answer,you may leave a voice note,and i will shortly get back to you.
Regards..
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.
