Rental Scammer - [email protected] /

From: Jordan Okun <[email protected]>

Hi,

Thanks for your interest in our apartment, Our home is in perfect condition and ready for occupancy.

You might be surprised at the fact that i am renting my apartment out at a low price but I want you to know that i am not interested in the financial aspect, I and my family are in search for an occupant who knows what it means to own a home and who would take proper care of our apartment like it belongs to him/her.

I know you might be weary to deal with someone who is overseas but I want you to know that Myself and my family and other Native Americans have been missionaries with Global Ministries for a long time now. We served as missionaries in major parts of the world, we now serve as United Methodist missionaries serving on humanitarian assistance and we arrive West Africa Two weeks Ago in supporting long term needs for clean water in Kenya, Sudan, Mali, Liberia, Burkina Faso, Gambia, Benin,Republic, Nigeria and Ethiopia - providing the everyday needs of more than 389,500 people. Also committed to mitigating the impact of HIV/AIDS, which kills more than 6,000 Africans every day, we are supporting community garden programs for AIDS sufferers and their families and also assisting those Internally Displaced Person (IDPS) in Camps due constant Terror attack on innocent citizens from different Terror groups in Africa. So my family and I have decided that we would be moving to our other home when we get back to New York.

I want you to know that you can stay in the apartment as long as you would like to stay as we are not planning on moving back into the apartment. But we would be checking up on you once in a while to ensure that the apartment is well taken cared of, if we come to a conclusion regarding renting our apartment to you, we would also arrange on how to get the Keys and House Documents to you so you can view the apartment before you sign any Document or Lease Agreement.

This person asks for a deposit payment via Western Union, MoneyGram 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.
