Subject: Re: Regarding: Move In Now!!

How are you? Thanks for the interest in my House, my house is still available for rent and is located at 506 Sussex Drive Huntsville, AL 35824,quite and safe
I only need someone that can take good care of the house at my absence since i am not around i just secured a contract in London of which i will not be back until
after 2years. And am here with the house keys and document, i tried to look for management before i left but couldn't get any in time. But the one i got we got a deal,
but later my wife advised against that. I reasoned with her and accepted her advise. So I contacted the agent back and let him understand that i am no longer
interested in handling the property to him anymore. So later we decided to have the house rent out, we would have give the agent this job also but the truth of1 the
matter is that the agent would want to handle it professionally and the occupant may not be able
to reason along with him later. If you notice, you will discove1red
that the price we are offering is far below standard price, this is enough for you to know that we are not after the rental fee but the absolute care for the property.
So If you know that you have a good reference and a good credential you can email me back to secure and occupy my house at my absent.

General house description:
3BR/3BA Single Family Home. 2 full, 0 partial (Approx.) 2,200 sq,Pet is permitted with the necessary pet security deposit etc. Renters will be required to pay First month $800 and a $650 Refundable Security Deposit prior to occupancy. This i s a new listing in a highly desirable location. All email correspondence will be answered. Please walk by first.! There is also high speed wireless internet access.Pets acceptable (deposit required). References a must., Hope you are Okay with the rent fee of $800 per month and a $650
Earnest security Deposit to Hold Property , get back to me asap because i need a tenant urgently and i can also forward the application form to you, if you are interested. Have a nice day.

Best Regard,
Deberry.

NB: You can go ahead and check the neighborhood and get back to me for further discussion, any sign post will be removed once i get any responsible tenant so you
ignore the sign post cause i have stop dealing and contacting the Realtor for too much fees i pay trying to ripe me off. It is available for a long term lease as we
will be here for 2years and also intend getting back to the states for a general check-up.

Subject: Application Form for Rent.

I will only be coming back in the next 2 yrs for a general chech-up and the application form as been attached to this mail kindly print out the form and sign on it as well then scan it back to me via email as well,then i will print it out right here and make a copy of it then i will record it to my file,mind you i will send one of the copy to you via DHL service both with the keys and the document.

Concerning the key and the necessary document you have no problem in recieving it i will be sending the key to you Via DHL service and get back to you with a tracking number for you to be able to track it and know when exactly the package will arrive.

Furthermore the money is not my problem but absolute perfect care of the house that is the most important thing i want from you hope you can understand.

Best Regard,
Deberry.


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.
