Hello,

Thank you for the response to my apartment for rent in the central part of Paris,i will here by let you know that i am Elodie Yang by name,am full French and half Korean and i am 30 by age and a loving person caring understanding and god fearing and want the same type in my place while am not going to be around and will want you to know features of the place before you let me know what you think???

The apartment is located at:rue de la bourse 75015 Paris..........And it is close to a place were you will love for stay while alone or out for my business and also it has a private toilet and kitchen and also got a guest room were your visitors can sleep in if not really wanting to going back home or where ever they are from.....The rent is Euro400 per month while the security deposit is Euro600 which will be paid back to you after your stay.So if you want to rent the place for just a month let me know and calculate it yourself and see if it is where u will wanna get for yourself.My mind and whom i want in the place is a clean neat god fearing and someone very understanding and willing to get the place for real just as the email states........

Another thing is that if you know you wont be able to always sort for the rent don't write back because i had the same problem with the last tenant which made me mad but hope you are different with another kind of idea?

Also i hope you are the serious type and will treat the place right?well without saying much i will want you show me seriousness by sending me a copy of your passport or a copy of your drivers license and CV and many more so i can be alright knowing its not just someone who will rip me off that am talking to and for viewing the place when you are free make sure you go around to check it out yourself as i am a busy person and hope you understand that....... And also internet access is in the home too and a photo of me is there for you to know who you will be a room mate with....

For more details read and let me know if you are ready to secure it because i will have my family lawyer who is presently in the UK run and handle it all with you so if you wanna proceed email back fast and let me know your mind and also you can reach the family lawyer on +447086464788 or on +447024026995.reply if interested to secure the apartment so that i can send out the following instructions for tenant so please make sure you call my family lawyer for verification before replying and if you don't get true to him try write up as soon as possible if serious.....

Thank you

Elodie


This person asks 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, MoneyGram or bank transfer either to him, his lawyer, your friend or a family member.

Sounds safe. It's not!

At other times, this person asks for a deposit payment via Western Union or Moneygram with the promise that they will send the keys through a courier company.

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.
