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.

Another scam not related to this scamwarners.com posting:
$850 / 3br - Luxurious 3 Bed, 2.5 BathTownhome (indianapolis, IN)
http://indianapolis.craigslist.org/apa/2857554278.html

This one sent me to a web site (which the website was part of the scam,) and where they wanted me to fill out a credit check form filled with personal information, so that I wouldn't waste their time, before they would give me the house address or square footage of the house. RIGHT!!! They must really think I am stupid. Personally I don’t give my information out until I meet and check them out, and have a walk threw of the house. The credit check company miraculously disappeared a couple of days later. The credit check website really did look official, which could seam on the up and up to some people, so please beware! People really need to be warned. I have done extensive research not stated here on these two scams, and have enough info to prove that these are indeed scams.
