You can rent for long term as well .
The price you need to pay for 1 month of rent will be 450 euro(all costs included) and Kaution deposit 1000 euro ( the Kaution deposit 1000 euro you will receive back when you leave the apartment ), with no extra taxes to pay.
Of course you will have to see the apartment before discussing further details . I am willing to send you the keys so you can visit it and see it suits your needs. The delivery for the keys and viewing permit (signed by me), will be made with TripAdvisor to make sure that we can trust each other.
I will explain the procedure if you are interested so please e-mail me as soon as you read this message because I really need to take care of this matter.

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.

I need to contact TripAdvisor to provide all necessary information so that they can begin the process immediately. You will receive a notification from TripAdvisor shortly, with all the instructions to follow and the invoice as well.

Regarding the payment, you will be instructed to deposit first payment a month's rent in advance 1(one) month + kaution (EUR 1500) to an account that belongs to TripAdvisor. I need to pay in advance at the company TripAdvisor because i came myself for views before and people did not show up(no offence). TripAdvisor will hold and secure the money until you check the apartment and decide if you want to take it or not. This is how their policy works, customer protection. Once the funds were deposited into their account, they will begin the shipping process. The keys and rental contract will be delivered to your address in not more than 2 days. You will be given control over three days from the day you receive the keys and contract at home. If you decide to keep the apartment, then you will need to authorize TripAdvisor to release the funds for me and the transaction will be completed.

Although I am sure you will love the apartment, it is good to know that you have this second option available. If you want to continue renting the apartment, please tell me your name and full address so I can setup immediately through TripAdvisor. I look forward to hearing from you.

This Scammer will arrange to send you an Invoice -- Make no mistake, the Invoice will be fake !
If you are reading this because you have received such an invoice, kindly forward it to the address in my signature line and I will report the details to the appropriate authorities.
