Hello,
I have a 5 bedroom Property at Landguard Road, Shirley, Southampton, SO15 5DL and it is 1000 pounds per month
including Bills(Utility Bill,Council Tax,Gas Bill,Water Bill,Internet
Bill,E.t.c) while the security deposit is 600 pounds but the security
deposit would be refunded back to you anytime you are vacating the
Property and here are the pictures of the Property attached below ,Get
back to me if you are still interested.
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.
Hello,

western union money transfer copy of receipt giving to you. Scan the
western union receipt and send it as an attachment to my email just

together to the western union location agent or bank around You to
