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.

Hi,

I just want to plead you not to forget your promise over taking good care of the property for us because that this the main reason why we are renting it out, I will be waiting for the lease sign and the full address as I've called to the courier service for the shipment of the package. The receptionist said the keys and documents will get to you the next day the shipping payment is made. We will give you the privilege to send just the security deposit for now so that I can proceed with the shipping of the package then the first month rent once you receive it with a promise to do so prior the moving date. As I said earlier we only want our daughter in Malaysia to have the money in school. You will be sending the security deposit rent to her. Once the payment is confirm I will send the package and email the shipping tracking number from the courier service to you. I want you to keep to your word and we don't want to regret in giving you our property but God forbid just telling you what we want from you, the package will be deliver to you the next day by overnight shipping at your doorstep.

The security deposit $350 CAD payment via Western union money transfer to her information below just find any Western union outlet to make the payment.

Receiver's Name: Michelle Heiley Herbert
Address: 34 USJ23/6A Subang Jaya, Selangor
Zip code: 46155
Country : Malaysia

Once you send the money you can email the information from the receipt once it done. I will look forward to read from you soon so that the package will be delivered the next day.

Sincerely,
David
