Thanks for the email.

I and my wife are the owners of the Property for rent, and I want you to know that it was due to my transfer that makes me and my wife to leave our home. We want to give it out for rent and looking for a responsible person that can take a very good care of the property for us.

We are not after the money for the rent but we want it to be very clean at all times and the person that will rent it to take it as if it were its own. So for now we are here in LONDON in our new home and also with the keys of the property. The property is still available and will only be given out to the right person that will take very good care of the place. Well I must let you know that the property has a lot of facilities like laundry facilities, air condition, internet and telephone access and car park and other necessary facilities. I have really decided to give out the house as a result of my transfer to LONDON (UK), in my place of work

We try to look for a reliable agent that we can give the keys and documents before we left but could not see, we are as well as don't want our house to be miss-used in our absent that is why we took it the keys and document of the house along with us. I and my wife came over to LONDON for MISSIONARY WORK, so I hope you will promise us to take very good care of the home if given to you for rent.

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.

New format...

I'm Samuel and my wife is Winifred E,and we both work for the Red Cross society.. We came to Africa on Friday 1/05/12 in supporting long term needs for clean water in Kenya, Sudan, Mali Nigeria and Ethiopia - providing the everyday needs of more than 389,500 people. Also committed to mitigating the impact of HIV/AIDS, which kills more than 6,000 Africans, every day, we are supporting community garden programs for AIDS sufferers and their families.



The programs not only improve the nutrition of AIDS patients and their children, but also provide them with an additional source of income with which to keep children in school and provide necessities of day-to-day living. We are also working to reduce the spread of HIV/AIDS through its peer education program called "Together We Can." The program will reach more than 450,000 youth ages 10 to 24 with curriculum, peer-to-peer outreach, "edutainment," and mass media-based HIV prevention messages. We ensure we reach both the individual and community level to provide a holistic, grassroots response to the HIV pandemic.



We are renting our house because we will be spending a long term here in Africa and also we don't intend staying there anymore when we return because we already bought a new home and we both decide to find a responsible person who we can trust that will be able to take proper care of our home as if it your own home and also the rent is included with the utilities and you can rent it for as long as you want because it available for both short and long term rentals.
