Thanks for the vast reply,the apartment is just one bedroom self contain,en suite with kitchen toilet and bath,so it is not a flat share you will be the only one to live in the apartment,it fully furnished and all the bills are inclusive in the rent.am only looking for someone who's tidy and clean so as to be able to keep the flat clean.I work and live in the UK (London) but that won't deprive me for letting the house to you.the flat belongs to my sick mother who has moved here with me in London so i can take good care of her that is why i decided to rent the flat out because i just don't want it to be vacant,the flat is fully furnished and all the bills are inclusive.More so,I have already made all the necessary arrangement for the documents and the flat keys with DHL courier service to have it delivered to your address within 48hrs of your total interest ,once you are able to provide all necessary requirements.You can move in the flat once you have the keys.If you want to proceed you can send me the following information so i can prepare a contract form for you and after you can make a payment and the keys would be delivered to you.

This person asks for a deposit payment via Western Union or MoneyGram to an escrow company with a promise that he will send the keys through a courier company.
Sounds safe. It's not!
These companies do not work this way.
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.
