Subject: Re: Referral for your listing at Woodland Knoll Ln
Good day
Just saw your mail which is showing your interest in acquiring my property for rent. First i will like to let you know the property is still much available but there are circumstances that are leading to my wanting to rent it out the property. Recently (about 2 months ago) i just got transferred to another region. my company decided to open a sub division in London (the united kingdom) and i was transferred there as chief operation manager to see and make sure things start up quite well before i can be called back home, i guess the period for such stabilization might take up to 4-7 years as such i decided to sell the house at first, that was when i found an agent whom we both agreed on terms and conditions, this prompted the Realtor agent to place for sale sign on the property at this point my wife and well-wishers around started calling and advising me not to sell but rather rent it out so that it can be well catered and cared for before my return. This prompted why i had to request for my keys and document from the Realtor agent and they are with me presently. at first i gave it to the same realtor to help me take care of the rental process only to know that they weren’t even after my own interest so i decided not to involve any agent in renting the house out as this will cost the occupant more money which i don't want. The realtor agent is going to remove the rental sign he placed there as i will take care of the process myself because i want the occupant to understand the main aim why i am letting the house out and i feel he/she should get clue of the reason even with the amount i am willing to let it out. NOTE: THE MAIN AIM OF RENTING IT OUT IS KEEPING THE BUILDING STRUCTURE ALIVE AND IN GOOD CONDITION even you can observe it from the price i am willing to give it out, that it's far below standard rental rate. The aim is only to build a cordial understanding between myself and the renter based on the reason why i am letting it out. Definitely, I would need your bio data which i guess is the only thing i can use to randomly access you. i would be needing information such as:
FULL NAME:
MARITAL STATUS:
OCCUPATION:
HOME PHONE NUMBER:
MOBILE NUMBER:
CURRENT ADDRESS STATE, ZIP
REASON FOR LEAVING/WANTING TO LEAVE YOUR PREVIOUS HOME OF RESIDENCE
PREVIOUS RENT
NUMBER OF PEOPLE THAT IS TO LEAVE IN THE HOUSE
DO YOU HAVE A CAR? IF YES HOW MANY
DO YOU HAVE A PET?
WHEN DO YOU PLAN MOVING INTO A NEW HOME
and concerning wanting to view the house, you could go there and take a look at the building surrounding and neighbourhood but as for the inside, you won’t be able to view it as the keys for the house are here with me as at present. please note you won’t be able to view the internal part of the house because the keys are here with me... but as much as possible i will try send some internal pictures i have of my property.
Home Address: 8511 Woodland Knoll Lane, Cypress TX 77433
Phone number: +447024052028

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.
