Hello xxxxxxxxxxxxx,

Thank you for your interest. My name is Martha K. Sims the owner of the apartment you are making inquiry . I'm happy to let you know that my unit is available for a long and short term lease period. The total monthly rent will be $1.600 with all utility bills included.
utilities like: cold/hot water, electricity, gas, satellite channels, cable & Wi-Fi, garbage disposal and parking

Recently, I got married and I moved with him to Liverpool. Since I am in Liverpool, I found a way to rent my unit safe and fast through Realtor.com which is an international company dealing in rentals apartments, I used it in the past and I was very pleased, which will handle the rental agreement on my behalf. This won't affect you at all, all arrangements will be on my expense.

I would like to know how many persons will inhabit there, more information about you and for how long want to rent it

Thank you, Martha K.

Hello again xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx,

I have used already before this agency and the transaction will be done through Realtor.com, so the transaction will be 100% secured for both . I left the keys and rental contract signed by me, to use their services, they will handle the payment and transport for us.

In order to view the flat and settle a deal, you will need the keys, and the contract. Next you will receive a notification message from Realtor.com containing all the instructions that you need to follow. So..you will have to pay the security deposit $900.00( you will get it back when you decide to leave the apartment). You will be given a 3 days inspection period from the day you receive the keys and contract. During this period you can take a decision. After unit inspection, If you decide to move in, you will have to authorize Realtor to release the funds to me, and the transaction will be completed. If you will not be satisfied with the apartment the total amount will be refunded in same day after your request. That is how their tenant/owner protection policy works.

If everything is ok, please email me with the details ( your full name, phone number, email and full address ), so I can make the arrangements. If you wish to proceed with renting the apartment

I look forward to hearing back 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.

I have removed the apartment from the Realtor.com because I have more interested people which want to renting the apartment but the apartment it's available for offers

If you are really interested please give me your full name,address and email and I will sent this info to Realtor.com . They will send you an invoice with instructions of payment preview and they will explain to you step-by-step how to make the transaction. You will send first the security deposit of $900 to Agent name and address , not to me directly. After you will make the deposit and send the payment information to Realtor.com, They will send you the keys and original contract and you will see the apartment. If you don't like or if you don't want , Realtor.com will refund you all the money

What do you think?

Thanks!
