This person asks for a deposit payment via Western Union or MoneyGram with a promise that he will send the keys through a courier company.
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 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.
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.

Thanks you very much for your reply, i can see your willingness in this House. 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 the properties.,I will be receiving the payment from you via Western Union because l think it reliable,secured and fast, and moreover 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.Please once again, i want to trust you and i hope you do notdisappoint 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, the FEDEX service will do for that.In doing this, you will need to make the payment to enable the shipment of the Keys and document to your current address, after which you could move in at your convenience.The rent starts counting when you move in and after 24 hours of moving in.so you can call me anytime we are so excited that we are renting to you.
Here are the contents of the document that needs to be sent.
1) Entrance and the rooms Keys
2) Paper/Permanent House form(Containing your reference details)
3) The House documented file.
4) Payment Receipt.
5) Full address and description of the house.
As soon as the security deposit is been confirmed by me, l will go ahead and commence on how the House Keys / Documents will be delivered to you and i will ensure that i book for the 24 hours FEDEX delivery service as to enable you receive it on time and as scheduled. Let me hear back from you as soon as possible so that i can arrange for the delivery. Get back to me via email or call My contact Line are:(+2348069414399 OR +2347040529946)if you will need me to send you the information which you will use to make the payment via western union to me in west Africa....
