Thank you for the most eloquent response to my listing, I'm the owner of the
apartment you are making inquiry of. Actually i resided in the apartment with my
family, before and presently we had packed due to my transfer from my church where
i work for and now situated in ALABAMA USA, and presently my apartment is still
available for rent and I'm not willing to sale my apartment anymore. It include the
utilities like hydro, washer and security, I have my furniture in the store if you which
to move in with your furnished items, no problem. Please i want you to note that i'm a
kind and honest man and also i spent a lot on my property that i want to give you for
rent, i will want you to take absolute care of my apartment and I want you to treat it as
your own, money is not the most important thing but i want you to keep it tidy all the
time so that i will be glad to see it neat when i come for a check up.

This person asks 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 either to him, a friend or family member.
Sounds safe. It's not!
At other times, this person asks for a deposit payment via Western Union or Moneygram with the promise that they will send the keys through a courier company.
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.
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.
