Hello,
It's my great pleasure that you are interested in our lovely 3BR/2BA Single Family home for rent. I am Sgt.Rolf P Jaeger the owner of this home former US Marine Sgt. serving in the 3rd Battalion, 25th Marine Regiment that Patrols the Anbar province, Iraq.Before now we resided in this home and presently we have Moved out due to my transfer as a matter of my profession,where I work as a volunteer with Catholic Revival programmed at the Ermita de San Antonio (St. Anthony Hermitage)here in Nigeria(Ilorin)And my wife who is a missionary's dealing with Bible Translation and literacy worldwide.
As soon as we settle down here I had a thought of selling the house so I have to look for an agent, after getting one, we got a deal but later my wife advised against that. I reasoned with her and accepted her advise. So I contacted the agent back and requested for my keys and documents. Later we decided to have the house rent out, we would have give the same agent this job also but the truth of the matter is that the agent would want to handle it professionally and the occupant may not be able to reason along with him later. If you notice, you will discover that the price we are offering is far below standard price, this is enough for you to know that we are not after the rental fee but the absolute care for the property.We will be serving for a long term and now our home is locked up now and presently we have found a new home here which we will be staying for a very long which might last 5 years in (Nigeria) and presently our lovely home is still available for rent for ($1100)as first month rent and the Security Deposit payment which is (800)including the utilities like washer,dryer,fireplace,internet access and garage.
More so,Now that we on Retreat program over here.Please I want you to note that all we will want is a very honest and neat person,so i will solicit for your absolute understanding and maintenance of this home and want you to treat it as your own,i am with the keys and documents here with me which will be sent to any responsible and interested tenant through FedEx further more you have to undergo some processes before i could be willing and convince to let my home to any tenant. The money is not the main problem but i want you to keep it tidy always. I also want you to let me have trust in you as i have always stand on my word.

Subject: APPLICATION ACCEPTED GET BACK TO ME ASAP AND GIVE ME A CALL SO I CAN SECURE THE HOUSE FOR YOU
To: Michelle Banks
Thanks you very much for your reply, i can see your willingness in this House. I want you to know that I'm satisfied with your profile and also believe l can trust in you because l will not like to experience what l experienced from my last tenant again, l showed your profile to my wife and daughter , they said they are ok with it.
l want you to know that we can let you stay in my House till the period of time you wish to. I want you to know that the rent fee is among the House utilities all included, so you can use them anytime but make sure you take proper care of my properties.We will come and pay you a visit after you have moved into my House to see how you are maintaining it,I will be receiving the security deposit from you via Western Union because l think it reliable,secured and fast, and moreover, my wife and I, got into Nigeria just few weeks back and we have been trying to settle down for our purpose. This has made it difficult for me to set up a bank account here for transaction like this. But never mind, I will be setting up one (Joint Account, for my wife and I) before the end of this year.l wish you best of luck in your work, from your profile l can see that you are responsible and a hard working person may the almighty Lord lead you in what ever you wish to do. you can drive by the house today.Please once again, i want to trust you and i hope you do not disappoint us and i promise you that, you will love the house and not only, a good relationship between us.
The following documents are here with us as i couldn't find anyone whom i could trust to drop them with for this purpose. But never mind, FedEx next day delivery service will do for that.In doing this, you will need to make a security deposit payment which is refundable (should in case you don't like the house) to enable the shipment of the Keys and document to your current address that you have to provide after which you could move in at your convenience.The rent starts counting when you move in and after 24 hours of moving in, you will be required to make the first month rental fees.Here are the contents of the document that needs to be sent.
1) Entrance and the rooms Keys
2) Paper/Permanent house form
3) The house documentary file.
4) Full Description of the house
5) Payment Receipt
6) Signed Lease Agreement Form you are supposed to also sign and get it sent back to me
NOTE THAT THE SECURITY DEPOSIT IS REFUNDABLE INCASE YOU DON’T LIKE THE HOUSE..
.
I have two other tenant that are ready to make 3 month Upfront Payment,But am not going to accept the offer,because they are both smokers,drinkers,they always parties,So please promise me you are going to take good care of my house....Note that all the documents of my house will be sent to you as soon as you agreed with terms So please do get back to me today so that I will let know the next step to take concerning the payment.....The house is available for rent for up to 4 years,so you are free to decide on how long you intend occupying it...Rent already includes utilities..I'm ready to accept either monthly or upfront mode of payment..depending on the one you're most comfortable wi th..Utilities include: power, water,sewer and trash.. Your monthly rent already covers utilities so you do not have to pay extra charges for that.. Please note that the deposit made is fully refundable should in case you finally gain entrance to the house after receiving the keys and documents and feel unsatisfied or uncomfortable with the interior,but i am giving you a benefit of doubt that you will love everything about this lovely home..You are advised to act fast on this so you dont loose the house to other interested applicants....

TEXT QUESTION: YOU ARE

As soon as you send the payment from the Western Union Money Transfer, you would be given some information. You would have to get back to me with following information:
1. Full Sender's Name And Address Including Zip Code:
2. MTCN NUMBER:
As soon as i confirms the payment, I will send the necessary keys of the house to you through FEDEX and get back to you with the Tracking number and the arrival time of the the keys.
So pls get back to me today.
I await your reply ASAP.
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.
