Subject: Payment Information from Timothy judge
To: Con Warner
Hello Sir
Here is my full name and address to send the money to , i am so glad you will be renting our home and you are so willing to take care of the house ...
PAYMENT NAME AND ADDRESS
FULL NAME: Judge Timothy
ADDRESS: 201 Alausa street, Ikeja
CITY: Lagos
STATE: Lagos
ZIP CODE: 23401
COUNTRY: Nigeria
That is the information , as soon as you make the payment send me the details here and text me to notify me ..
Peace of the Lord be upon you..
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.
