Hello,
This is all you need to do now if you want me to come on Friday and see you personally, cos i will like to see you myself so that i can see you okay
have provided the contract document for you to sign and scan back to me and so have included the details you want used in sending me the deposit
The deposit is a security fee that is refunded back at the end of the contract,if in case of damages to property ,the damages will be calculated and deduct from the Deposit and if any Damages did not occur your deposit will be refund back without deducting any money
Am giving you the details to used in sending me the Refundable Security Deposit, due to the status of my work, i prefer you sending me the money through Western Union Money Transfer Receipt transfer

Kindly get back to me with the signed contract document and therefore might have after you send the money, i just need a confirmation of receipt that you've done the payment, the Western union Money Transfer receipt, i want you to scan it to me .
Await to hear from you . soon
Regards
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.
