To: Michelle Banks
I'm the owner of the house you are interested in,located at Eugene 3 bedroom 1 bathroom.I'm presently in manchester due to job transfer.I went there with all my family.I decided to look for a responsible and caring person to maintain and take proper care of my house as I do.Right now i don't have a local rep due to limited time so if you are interested in renting property and willing to work with me despite my absence then i would email the necessary papers for the lease to you, for necessary endorsement.
Please I want you to know that I am a kind and honest person also I spent a lot of time on my properties so I want you to treat it as your own.
Rent $900/month utilities included and security deposit $900 (Security deposit Refundable)the money involved does not matters to me,but I want you to keep it tidy all the time so that I will be glad to see it neat when I come for a check up.
The House is located at 3524 Regent Avenue, Eugene OR
Firstly, I will like you to go and take a look at the Neigborhood and exterior part of the house because you will not be able to go inside to see the interior, hence I have all the keys with me.I will be willing to send you pictures of the interiors if you demand for it.Here is a rent application form which I will like you to fill and send back to me.Which will be used to process all documents that will be coming together with the keys leading to the house and this will come to you through courier service.
1. Last Name
2. First Name
3. Age
4. Telephone Number
5. Current Address
6. Are you married
7. How many people will be living in the house
8.when do u intend to move in
9. Do you have a car
10. Occupation
11. Do you have a pet
12. Reference.
I Await your response so that we can discuss on how to get the document and the keys to you..My cell phone number is +447024031409
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 money (again via Western Union) 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.
