You will only be able to drive by the house for now but not have a look at the interior until i have sent the keys and documents of the house to you and the requirement for getting the keys and documents of the house is a fully refundable payment of $600USD,
which is the security deposit.

I think we are gonna get along with each other because i am an easy going person who respects ones privacy but people take advantage of me due to the nature of my work. There won't be any problems with you having a landlord like me because i was raised by strong Christian parents who are late in the early 9ties and i have abide with their good qualities from childhood. I think i would have to end my note here, i will be looking forward to read from you later today or as soon
as possible.
Thanks for reading.

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.
