Hello,
Good to read from you on your interest on my apartment, which i am leasing out for rent just to give you a little low down about the apartment. My Late father resided in the apartment, whom i inherited the apartment from being his only child. I am a spanish citizen by birth. I am presently residing here in spain because of my work And also i am about to get married to my fiance over here in less than three months from now.
The flat is up for a total of $900 per month including council tax and bills. I just need someone with an open heart, love and clean to occupy the apartment and put all my worries off concerning the maintenance of the apartment for now.
The flat comprises of one bedroom with bathroom,Tv,gym, fully equipped kitchen with microwave, gas cooker and oven unit,refrigerator, coffee maker, coffee grinder, plates,pots, pans,etc.secured covered parking, Utilities included are electricity, gas, water and free internet access(wifi)
Just to let you know, the keys are right here with me. But there wouldn't be any problem with that. As it can be posted to you, after all necessary agreement has be reached and signed into lease as advised by my lawyer over here in the spain. Also i will like you to know that the rent charges is not really the issue , but your absolute maintenance of the apartment, because it is good to keep the property in good condition, just for the memories of my father. Who committed so much putting those facilities in place, so i wouldn't want an violation of my property if finally rented by you.
The Apartment is situated at 51 Lower Simcoe St, Toronto.Please note, only the main utility bills (Gas, Water, Electricity) are included on the rent. I would be settling the bills at my end. So you would be starting the lease with a clean slate, as there are no outstanding bills.
The minimum lease term is 1 months, and a maximum of 2 years with a possibility of extension.
Kind Regards,
Jose Luis Gutierrz.

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 (by Western Union) money 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.
