Hi,
I am so happy to read back from you. Firstly i want you to know
that the apartment is still available for rent. Below are some vital
information you need to know about my apartment. It cost 600euro
monthly together with all bills such as water, electricity, gas
e.t.c
and also a 700euro security deposit payment which is refundable while
packing out of my apartment if there is no damage or loss of my properties.
The apartment is situated at 50 Rue de Rivoli 75004 Paris, France and
it is close to its metro station,my apartment is spacious, it is about
60sqm in size and there are restaurant, public transport all around.
It is about 8mins walking distance to the supermarket and it is
located in a very nice and safe area in Paris.
I attached some pics of my apartment so that you can see how the place
looks like. I will wait to read back from you if you are interested in
renting my apartment so that we can proceed. You can simply reach me
on +447045765886 for further discussion on the apartment.
Best regards
Albert.
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.
