Hello,
Still interested to rent my flat? Sorry for the late reply. I'm in United Kingdom at the moment and i forgot to check my email. Email me back if still interested. The rent is $900 per month and i request $900 guaranty so you should make sure that you have available $1800.
Thank you,
Thank you,

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.
^^^ fake website used in this scam - reported.^^^Due the fact i'm in United Kingdom and i'm unable to arrange an inspection so if you want to rent my appartment we have to use this UK specialised company. Take a look over their website and see how their services works:
