Thanks for your email response. my home is still available for rent $1050 Monthly which include utilities like hydro,heat,laundry facilities, WC.facilities Internet connection, air conditioning, alarm system etc..the kitchen is fully equipped with all necessary cooking utensils, refrigerator-freezer, four-hob and oven, microwave, dishwasher and washing machine, and i also want you to know that it was due to my work transfer that made me and my wife to leave the home with an intention of giving it out for rent. I am looking for a responsible person that can take very good care of it as we are not after the money for the rent but want the property to be kept clean all the time as it is our hard-earned property. If you are honestly interested and will absolutely maintain our property (Taking care of it like yours) as i hope i can put my trust and confidence in you presently,I earlier wanted to sale the home but had a second thought to rather put it up for rent, we are here in Africa doing the Lord's duty for humanity, for through our direct service to mankind, the blessings and promises of God will manifest today. The home vital informative documents and the entrance keys to my home is with us, we try to look for dependable agent to handle the rent but could not find one due to the limited time we had before leaving the country. Mostly we do not want our property to be given to any sort of person to avoid damages and troubles. I and my wife came over to Africa for a missionary work, so we hope you will be a good tenant which we've been praying to get.you can go ahead and view it exteriors at your earliest convinient time.

This person asks for a deposit payment via Western Union or MoneyGram with a promise that you can have the keys to a property that does not belong to him.

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.
