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.
Like i told you earlier on that am currently in Nigeria and
wont be back for a long time and i don't want my apartment to be there
with no one living in my apartment that why i decided in renting out
my apartment, so its going to be a little bit hard for you to view the
inner part of the flat as am having the keys with me here, here is my
phone number incase you want to contact me on phone +2348085844546, i
really understand how you feel towards towards this transaction i want
you to know that this is 100%Legitimate also i want you to know that i
am a God fearing man and i will never tarnish my whole life and image
all because of money all i am just trying to do is to make sure i find
a trustworthy and responsible person to my flat and which i believe
you will be able to do for me, so i want you to be rest assured that
there will be no problem everything will be perfectly OK...also i
promise you in the name of God that you will be receiving the package
once the payment for the first month rent deposit fee is been made and
confirmed.....i really understand how difficult it is to send money to
someone you have never seen or meet before but i can assure you that
this is real and you will never regret of doing this, also i am not
forcing my flat on you, but if you are still interested i want you to
email me back so we can conclude on this, i would have loved to ship
out the keys to a friend or someone else over there, but am sorry i
will not be able to do that due to the last bad experience i had when
i sent the keys of my flat to a friend of mine to help me show a
tenant the interior part of the flat but you wouldn't believe that my
friend conilled together with the tenant and they both stole lots of
my properties worth 2100CHF so since then i've decided never to be
sending out my keys without the confirmation of the payment for the
first month rent deposit fee.
Thanks and God bless you bountifully.
