Hello,

was born in the Texas, where i lived with my
parents before my father who was a lawyer was transferred to the New york
to work for DHL company as their company legal advisory and i have to come
to New york for my masters degree and lived with my father in his
apartment which he has permanently bought from the owner in the house.

He died few months ago after he went on a business trip to Australia when
he went to Vamed Engineering and came
back with Influenza and so was inffected but was not home on time for
treatment. His memories lingers in my heart
daily and each time i look at his picture and ever since my mother has
been in texas(USA) managing my fathers
firm and also handling some of our assets. What more do i tell about my
family.....!!! I have a kid brother and sister who are in school and
living with my mother in Texas.

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.
