Subject: For rent (Waterloo, Ontario)
Hello there,
My name is Cathy Mckinney, owner of the 3 bedrooms house at:
Waterloo, Ontario
Size: 1600 sqft, currently listed on craigslist.
Rent per month= $1,400.00
Security Deposit= $1,400.00
This unit is very much available and up for grabs, I'm handling the rent ourselves due to unnecessary inflation by Realtor making it difficult to rent it off faster. This is actually the first time we are doing this.
.
ABOUT THE LEASE, IT IS FLEXIBLE (3 MONTHS) (6MONTHS) (1YEAR) (2YEARS)
I don't intend to lease for less than three months which stands as our minimum demand.
IF STILL INTERESTED,
I would like to know more of whoever wants the apartment for security reasons and i'll also want to be sure that you are going to take care of the apartment like it is yours too.
Regards
Cathy Mckinney
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.
Thanks again for your interest, concerning your interest, i'm not renting out my house because of money, all i want is to rent it for serious person that will take good care of the house.
This unit is very much available and up for grabs, But the truth to the matter is that am not in the country at the moment, i will like to inform you that, I am working currently in the Spain, A permanent job with Emo Oil in Barcelona, an Agricultural, industrial fuels & lubricants company. My Husband live here with me, However I would have preferred a situation whereby you can come around preview the house for yourself, but not withstanding that can be worked out any way..
I'm the owner of the house and it's available for rent, we are handling the rent ourselves due to unnecessary inflation by Realtor making it difficult to rent it off faster. This is actually the first time we are doing this.
I have already register all the necessary documents and keys of the house with UPS 2-3 days delivery.
If you really interested, Get back to me so that i can send you the full details of the house.
Thanks again for your interest and THE EARLIER THE BEST....
