Subject: RE: Elegant 2 Bedroom Apartment Fully Furnished
Hi ,
I confirm that the property ( 93 Liverpool St, Sydney NSW 2000 ) is available for lease for 250 $AU p/w including utilities for as long as you need.Amazing 2 bedroom, 1 bathroom apartment for rent in the world tower. Building amenities include resort style facilities (pool, sauna, gym, virtual golf). Ideal for a small family, young professionals or students. Perfect for shared accommodation. In the apartment you will find a dishwasher,a refrigerator, a freezer, a washing machine , a dryer,a niron ,a noven,a toaster ,a coffee maker ,vacuum cleaner , a big screen TV,cable TV with the basic access, ADSL internet and Wi-Fi access. Also the apartment is near the public transportation , a gym,and other facilities .
There are no problems if you have any pets, as long as you cleanup after them . I am not interested to make a lot of money from the rental, I am interested to find a tenant that will take goof care of the property until my return ( minimum lease period 3 months).The two months upfront payment with security bond is the total of $2000.The minimum period of time that you have to stay in the apartment in 3 months. I'm not planing to come back to Australia due to health problems and my new job, until next year! Because i had to move to New Zealand so soon I didn't had time to find a trust worthy agent,don't have any friends in the area to send the keys .I found an alternate solution in order to close the transaction safe for the both of us , it is an international delivery solution called MoneyBookers
(https://www.moneybookers.com/app/help.pl?s=escrow&l=EN)
The MoneyBookers Company is similar to FedEx or UPS, they will provide assistance in handling the payment and delivery of the Keys and Lease Agreement . With this procedure you will be able o check the apartment before I receive the payment . I have 2 more persons interested in renting the apartment so please send me your full name and address ASAP if you are ready to rent my apartment. The first person that will send me the details for the lease agreement will be the new tenant .
Thank you for your interest and I will wait news from you.

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 lawyer,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.
