Rental scammer - [email protected]

Here we go! Catch another one from Gumtree, the text is exactly the same like some of other ones. Just wondering why they are so lazy even don't want to change a little bit so that they may have a chance not to be googled out to make their fuking business.

"Hi ,


Good to read from you again.


A lil about me : Am a 25years old fashion designer, very friendly and adventurous, I only Drink occasionally but don't smoke, I am quiet, easy going, fun to be with and open minded.I like to keep the flat clean and tidy and would require the same too from any tenant.I am a christian by religion,my hobbies are Hiking, singing, watching soccer and going to the cinema's.


About the flat : The flat was once a family flat till my old parents acquired a new property in Spain and moved, so i have been left in charge of this flat. It is a 3 bedroom flat like i already told you, and nobody occupies the flat at the moment.


I live in Birmingham and only come around once in a while so as to keep the flat and surroundings clean. Reasons why we want to rent this place out is so that there will be a permanent occupant that will take care of the flat furnitures and keep the surroundings clean in my absence. We just need life in the flat.


At the moment we are looking to rent out just 2 of the rooms while the 3rd will be locked permanently, for my use whenever i come around.


Concerning viewing: I can only travel from Birmingham to attend to serious tenants that are ready to move in and can prove that they can pay for the first months rent and one months deposit, i don't do general viewing. I need to know that you are serious and have the money to pay before i can come down to London.


I have a tight working schedule caused by my upcoming fashion show week, which preparations are on for at the moment with my co-ordinators from New York. You can search the map for that area and what you see in the pictures are what the interior of the flat looks like.


If you feel comfortable with that let me know, if not don't bother to reply so that we won't waste each others time.


Thanks and warm regards,


Naila

Comment : Gumtree, A perfect place for scammer!

Thank you for posting this up for us. Yes, and fortunately scammers are not always creative. This allows us to post up information that others can find.

Scammers often share scripts with others or sell the script to other scammers. This could be the same scammer or a different scammer. With the headers, we would have a better chance to say if this appears to be the same scammer.

Scammers also have multiple, multiple email accounts and can open a new one (or a dozen) in a few minutes. That is the reason we do not advocate shutting down scammer's email addresses. They just open another one or use one they already have set up.

Thank you for positing this up as this is what hurts scammers most, if informed people do not fall for their lies.
