I found an ad on *****list last night and spent some time reading about scams since then. Lo and behold, I received the following email about half an hour ago. This person also goes by the name of Denise Bell - you might find a similar warning under that name on this site.
The red flag was when the person said that they were the only one who had the keys - and they seriously expected someone to pay up without ever setting foot in the apartment?!
I haven't replied and don't intend to.

Hello,
Thanks for taking the time to look at my property.My name is Nicole Williams,I'm 39 years old and I own this beautiful 1 bedrooms,1 bathrooms condo(845 square footage).It's located in 35 Mariner Terrace,Toronto,ON M5V 3V9,Canada.The unit is equipped with recessed lighting, central air and heat, the condo come with two parking spots,a storage unit where you can deposit my furniture (if you don't like it and you want use your furniture),there is also a linen closet, and most importantly, a new front loading stacked washer and drier.Pets allowed.I've moved to United Kingdom with my job and decided to rent it because the rent is very expensive here.The price is so low because I'm here and is very hard to find a tenant.I can rent you the condo for min. 1 month and max. 6 years(or more).I really want to find a good and responsible tenant for it, and I hope that you can send me some personal information about yourself.The rent for whole the condo for 1 month is $700.00 including all utilities(water,electricity, internet, cable, parking , airconditioning, fireplace, dishwasher, garbage) and the security deposit is $700.00 (you'll get the deposit back at your departure-or you can use it to pay your last month of rent) and I want to receive the money monthly in my bank account. You can move in the condo in the same day when you receive the keys. The only problem is that I`m the only person who has the keys and I have nobody in Canada that could show you the condo. In order to check it, see if you like it(I'm sure that you'll love it), you need to receive the keys and the contract.
If you want to rent the condo, please e-mail me back and I will explain you how the payment and shipping will take place!
