Thanks for your interest about our 3bedrooms,2 full Bath,Single Family Home, Size:1,200 sqft. It is still available for rent and we would be needing a good and honest family to take care of it.

We wanted to sell the house for a long time, so we thought of renting it out since selling is taking longer than expectation. So you can rent the place as long as it works with us and you are free to go check it whenever you are ready.

I am the owner of the house. I just traveled for a program Empowering Youth to Fight Racism, HIV/AIDS, Poverty and Lack of Education with Dove Christian Fellowship International. The program is taking place in Four major countr

This person asks for a deposit payment via Western Union, MoneyGram or bank transfer 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.ies which are Uganda, United Kingdom, Haiti and USA, That is why i handover everything concerning the property to my lawyer due to my job status.

Its a lovely house, so we will require you get back if you are really interested and ready to abide by our mode of renting, as we are just trying to ensure we rent to the right person, as we want a clean and responsible person, someone that will take absolute care of the place.
